[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 212153, member: 13"] I think too many Maine breeders are breeding for the show ring. I know you get more rain over on the east side of I35 than we do on the west side, but I'm not sure that an 1800 lb cow is practical in a commercial operation. And if she only gets you 600 lb weaning weights..... There's a lot of money to be made in the show business, but the traits that show people look for, hair, bone, style, aren't what a commercial buyer looks for when he buys a bull. And the commercial bull buyer will make or break your operation. Pretty animals, though. Good luck... [/QUOTE]
