[QUOTE="Banjo, post: 1006511, member: 17304"] I've thought of going that route myself....I just like the fact that they are not developed on grain....studies show that bulls not grained are more fertile. However, having said that, the studies suggest that bulls fed to gain from two to four lb/day are less fertile. I don't feed any grain but I would think probably something fed a very modest amount of grain may do as well. There are a few producers out there starting to pop up here and there that are raising bulls that aren't fat as ticks and are ready to go to work. I'm also not sold on the 900 to 1000lb. cow....i have 5 or 6 that i am watching here in my herd...so the jury is still out on that. I think about 1200lb is about right. [/QUOTE]
