[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1812451, member: 40587"] Shoot, you don't need to change your herd up, just your bull. All of those cows you have now, as varied as they are, would produce a hell of a calf if you had a reg, homo for black Brangus bull. Load that Hereford bull and that dwarf belted cow up and haul them to the sale ASAP. They will bring more this week than they ever will. Won't be too long before grass will start dying and more cattle will show up at the sales, and the prices will drop. Then, take the money and buy the best Brangus bull you can afford to breed all the cows you have now. Except for the Jeresys. AI them with sexed Brahman semen, and you will get 2 heifers every year like those Caustic has. What you see in that pic...with the little black calf by its side, is a $3k+ package right now. You could sell those 1/2 Br heifers as yearlings for $1500-$2000, or breed them to an Angus bull and get a $3k pair like Caustic's to sell. Or, use sexed Angus semen and raise the heifers up as replacements.....for yourself or to sell. You would have those 3 options available every year. You are sitting on a gold mine with those "mutts" of yours. Including any heifers you intend to keep. Excluding the Jeresys and that mini belted, how many cows do you have? [/QUOTE]
