[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1795700, member: 25884"] The goal is to get the cows bred back in June... the 7 yr old would do the trick, he is a nice long bodied bull.... short legs will not affect the freezer beef you are selling. If you can buy him for less than the young bulls, he will make you back your money in the fall as a kill bull and have more weight to sell since he will only be servicing a half dozen cows. If the place he is now has used him for this long he should be good to go. It is not like you want him to be the start of a foundation of a fancy herd. Herefords have good thick muscling/MEAT..... to me it is a no brainer; if there is nothing else wrong with him.... he will put more meat on the calves , and they will probably finish SOONER... Kill bulls here are running over $1.00 lb.... and if he is a little older, he will get the job done without letting the hormones have him pacing fences wanting to go gallivanting as a young bull often does... You are only going to use him for 60 days or so.... [/QUOTE]
