[QUOTE="kentuckyguy, post: 1538782, member: 26293"] I have recently been considering starting to replace my commercial cattle with registered. I only run at the most 20 cows so I am really small. What should be some of my main considerations when choosing to go registered? My biggest fear is spending the money on registered females and all the paperwork to register calves and selling calves at commercial prices. I would really like to get out of selling my calves at the local stockyards which lately has been brutal. I understand I will still have to ship the culls there, but would like other options. I am just not sure that the registered cattle will sell any better than say some good purebred angus or BFW calves. I recently took an AI course and plan to start doing quite a bit of it. Does anyone have luck selling calves sired by big name bulls that are not registered or are crossbred? [/QUOTE]
