[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 505695, member: 13"] Right. If you watched the sale, they had two prices listed as the auctioneer worked. One was the "L" price, say $1,000. The other was the "S" price, in this case, $3,000. If you don't return the bull at the end of 90 days, you owe the folks $2,000. They recommend insurance on the leased bulls. That's why the idea of buying them cheap and slaughtering them won't work. I agree. I just don't see how they're making any money. The bulls have to be somewhere when they're not leased out and maintained in working condition. But this group has been doing this for quite a few years so I guess they're making money. On the other hand, it looks like a good deal for the producer. He can get a well bred bull for a breeding season at a reasonable price, not have to feed him, fix fences behind him, keep him seperated from the cows, for the rest of the year. Plus if you wanted to keep heifers, inbreeding would be less a problem. [/QUOTE]
