[QUOTE="Third Row, post: 451192, member: 3823"] For the really big name bulls, they have a tendency to just keep on producing until they ultimately die. I'm not sure why but a lot of them seem to stifle themselves. Of course, now, the big timers are cloned so their genetics will just keep on being produced. For the 2nd and 3rd tier AI bulls, they become lease bulls. The last time I heard, you can lease some of the bulls that were promoted a few years ago but didn't become huge hits for about $1,500/month. Judging by what they look like, I would assume a large portion of them are put down after they injure themselves due to being overworked. While the most logical answer, I'm not sure that's true for most of them now that there are tighter restrictions on downers. [/QUOTE]
