[QUOTE="hillbillycwo, post: 734424, member: 13747"] I like the advice of starting with commercial cows and breeding them to produce marketable calves for the feedlot/sale barn customers. I think the advice on starting there and building a registered herd from there is very sound. The registered herd can be used in conjunction with the commercial herd to improve your cows. In our area we all look over each others herds as we drive by them and many times we trade around to improve our herds. You can develop your name by breeding your registered stock and improving your commercial stock as well and then sell cross bred stock off the farm. Wouldn't that work to get you more into the ful time registered stock over time? [/QUOTE]
