[QUOTE="Nebraska Sandhills, post: 357244, member: 3029"] Everyone likes to save a buck, but I would sure get some good cows based on this criteria- 1. disposition--you are going to have to get the cows in and give numerous shots, as well as calve them out, make sure they are manageable. 2. milk--as long as you are going to the work of putting in embryos, make sure the cow has enough milk to raise a calf. 3. complete health program--know what you're buying has had regular vaccinations to prevent disease problems. A lot of guys down around here will buy some good middle aged bred cows in january-february, calve them out, either leave the calves on or pull them off and sell them as calves at birth. [/QUOTE]
