[QUOTE="deenranch, post: 758444, member: 6465"] I agree with you about the fat bulls... But if you go buy a bull that wasn't fed up and had a ww of 400# your calves wouldn't do any good either... If you buy a bull in good shape with a 600# ww you are doing good.. If I have a customer come to my house and pick out a bull he is gonna pick out the fattest bull there... He can go home and brag about his good looking bull... If you come buy a bull that is not in good shape then you aren't gonna tell anyone about him... So the fat bull sells because he looks good and makes the customer happy... I try to keep my bulls in shape for turn out after they are a year old... they do get fed good until that time.... Lets them deposit muscle and grow the frame that their genetics allow them to... It's the same with females... Fat, pretty, shiny cattle sell better... [/QUOTE]
