[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 16908"] & you have to consider how many cattle you want to raise.....it might be hard to find a market for 100 longhorn calves each year. or what kind of beating you're willing to take on the ones that don't sell for a couple thousand. we have used longhorn bulls on our heifers (for calving ease) in the past and have purchased 18 month old registered longhorn bulls for $500 (& this was from a reputable breeder who also sells out-of-state & at consignment sales) but these were bulls who weren't good enough to be sold as longhorn breeding stock but were fine for our purpose.
