[QUOTE="High Cotton, post: 990762, member: 14928"] I'm looking for 1 or 2 registered females to start my own herd. I worked all summer baling hay and sold some other toys to free up some assets. My original plan was to lease some near by pasture and to purchase some heifers from the farm I've been working for. After asking about a near by pasture that is possibly up for rent I was presented with an opportunity. The family I have been helping the last 3 years is getting older. The parents that live on the farm is in their late 80's early 90's. The kids live in town about 20 miles away but are there on their days off. I've been over there alot more this winter feeding, tagging calves, keeping up the calving information, and other miscellaneous tasks. I haven't been getting paid for the winter work usually just for working in the hay field during the summer. They suggested I purchase some nice register females and run them with their cows. They said they had the room and it would help give me a return on the time I've been investing there. They had a registered herd for years but due to some health issues several years before I started helping them its a commercial herd now. They have some nice registered bulls that I have access to. A.I. is a another avenue I may possibly pursue in the future. Here are the herd bulls they have now.
