[QUOTE="Massey135, post: 916562, member: 17234"] You mean with the cost of YOUR production. I don't know that they still have a 20% open rate but in an attempt to retain only the hardiest, most fertile, females, they uitilized this philosphy for decades to ensure they only retained the best. Survival of the fittest to the T. Now you may not have the luxury of running that many cows and enough carry cash to cover the losses over the years, but I guarantee if you did, you would end up with exceptional individuals that excel in YOUR environment just as they have done. As far as the land, I don't know, but apparently its quality has been sustained at least to the point of being able to produce purebred cattle for the last 4 decades. Outside of a purebred operation or if you're retaining heifers, I don't see any use for these bulls. They def won't add lbs to the average commercial calf crop but what they will do - and where their place is- is in the cowmaker market. [/QUOTE]
