[QUOTE="cfpinz, post: 1334704, member: 2383"] I'd suggest you start off with roughly half the number of cows you'd like to end up with, and build the rest from within. The knowledge you gain through selection will be priceless, and I'd suggest you stay away from heifers if you're not experienced. A good group of middle-aged straight bred cows is what I'd be looking for, and make my own F1's. Why let someone else get the benefits of the first cross? In case I missed it, what breeds are you looking into? That would play a big part in cow/bull selection. [/QUOTE]
