[QUOTE="HOSS, post: 998844, member: 1863"] I usually get the catalogs or registration numbers and look at the pedigree and epd's. I form a priority list based off of what I can see on paper. When I look at the animal in person their phenotype may cause me to either eliminate them from consideration or move them up or down on my list. Once I have established the list I try to buy the animals at the top. I also look at disposition......the best looking cow in the world is useless to me if she stomps my butt in the ground or I can't catch her to A.I. or medicate her. [/QUOTE]
