That is a really good point if you believe the "Trich saga" .3waycross":10mdrf2x said:cornfarmer62":10mdrf2x said:what would be a fair price for me to charge to lease out my bull for 6 weeks. will probably breed 12-15 head?
That much semen alone is worth 250 to 300 dollars and without as high of a rate of conception!
Hi. I'm not sure what Semen costs but what do you mean by the last part of that sentence?
They should also pay for the BSE . Are you serious? You really think that is going to happen on 15 head?
and the Trich test. Trich on the return especially. You do not need any std's inttoduced in your herd for a small paycheck.

Those were the conditions under which I would loan out my bull if at all. Nothing more nothing less.

By the way........how many bulls do you lease most years?
I think Trich testing is a good thing.........I just wonder how real the problem is.3waycross":3pf1zbn8 said:Kingfisher":3pf1zbn8 said:3waycross":3pf1zbn8 said:I guess it doesn't matter what you believe. I believe it and the state of Colorado believes it so we get the test. It's cheap insurance!

No you didn't you just wanted to start a fight about Trich testing.
I suppose the fat pen is " McDonalds?" Leasing sounds risky and not a good way to " make friends" I suppose it works in some locals.showing71":47dsz9qh said:We have charged in the past $500-$700 for lease. But upon return, the bull goes straight to the 'fat pen' as we don't want any disease introduced into our herd. We don't lease all that often unless we have a bull left over from the private treaty sale.
Sounds like your man has the " Bull by the horn"Angus Cowman":3h5gdouh said:I lease a few bulls every yr to a man that I also sell cows to
he pays 1200 for 90 days
the bulls are tested before they leave and 30 days after they return he runs a closed herd as he only buys cows from me
mortality insurance on the bulls runs $7 pr $100 of value pr yr on the bulls I pay that becasue I have it on my bulls anyway
if a bull gets injured he covers vet expense and if bull is deemed unusable then he will pay for the bull on a prorated basis
I wouldn't lease bulls to just any JoBlow that comes along but I trust this man
