Don't beat me up to bad guys. I'm still a beginner on this forum and although I feel like I've learned a bit over the last 4 years of running a small herd I've always been the type to be open to suggestions and knowledge.
I've decided that I want to purchase a young angus bull that will be ready to breed some cows as well as some heifers in June. I'm trying to develop my herd into a type that does well on grass only.
I'm what most of you would consider a "hobby" rancher. I do have afull time job and only run about 8-10 head of momma cows on 168 acres "I like to leave alot of food for the wildlife". Anyway, I think the best decision for my little herd atthis time would be an angus bull since angus calves bring the highest $$ per pound in my area but obviously I'm not large enough of an operation to justify spending a ton of money on a bull.
So, If any of you have a good young angus bull prospect that would be heifer safe and promote the grass fed only genetics that I'm shooting for let me know.
Thank you for your time and the input that you have.
