[QUOTE="Josher, post: 1843244, member: 37963"] I don’t need to mention the same arguments for keeping your own replacements again but another good reason is the consistency you get from keeping your own. They come from a herd that is similarly bred and adapted to your management style and there bred to the same type of bulls. The quality and consistency will earn you a premium and a reputation which is hard to put a value on. You just can’t get that consistency most places even if you’re the most talented cattle buyer. Having said that I’ve sold bred heifers for 7 years now and it’s worked well for me AND my customers. I dont waste time trying to convince them it would be cheaper to raise their own. Would be bad for my business. But also we would probably both be right doing what we are doing. They are better off buying and I am better off raising my own and selling the extras. [/QUOTE]
