[QUOTE="gizmom, post: 1534600, member: 13402"] I would imagine the seedstock business is a bit different than selling cars. All makes and models of cars are built exactly to the same specifications then they add upgrades to the interior,which adds dollars but doesn’t change the actual car other than esthetics. Now you have 10 heifers 8 out of 3000C ( he was an excellent bull in his day, semen prices are anywhere from 50.00 to 100.00 per straw on him now) Resource is an excellent bull so you should have some nice calves. As to how to price them, you have to look at individual performance of each individual calf. Unlike cars even flush brothers and sisters can have major differences. Just because a calf is out of good genetics does not mean it will be worth keeping. We have folks on here that have a great deal of knowledge and experience in the cattle business. They are more than willing to help if treated with respect, however being Cattlemen they are also independent strong willed individuals that don’t abide BS. No one much cares what a person does or has outside of their cattle. Just food for though. Gizmom [/QUOTE]
