[QUOTE="Workinonit Farm, post: 914127, member: 839"] Yes they do indeed put RFID tags in "junk" animals. The RFID tag is soley for the purpose of trace-back, to identify the farm/ranch in which the animal originated, DOB etc. Where I used to work, ALL the animals had RFID tags, and the majority of the offspring were sent to slaughter, afterall, that is what they were producing----beef. Perhaps you could find a heifer or 2 to get started with and AI them to beef bulls. Being that you are in dairy country, surely one of those dairy people would be willing to help you out with advice on synchronizing your heifers, point you in the direction of semen dealers like ABS, SelectSires, etc and assist you with getting your heifers bred......to a beef bull. I echo everyone elses sentiments regarding a Jersey bull. Katherine [/QUOTE]
