[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1673290, member: 6291"] That is what I see. When we started we had all purchased cattle. We started retaining and buying. Initially we would have some that wouldnt breed or didnt pan out from one reason or another... and my culling parameters were pretty loose. I bet 50% made it at best. Fast forward 15+ years to now with the help of good bulls, good record keeping, and experience I rarely cull for fertility or have much death loss at all... less than 1%. [/QUOTE]
