[QUOTE="Beefy, post: 27183, member: 57"] thats another one of those absurd rules like never buy cattle from salebarns. i dont know where some of these people come up with this crap. your heifers should be your best genetics in the herd, and their calves should be even better. what sense does it make to throw away perfectly good heifers? none. as far as your salebarn question goes, most older cattle are at the salebarn for a reason. But there are TONS of good and sometimes great young commercial heifers and 1st calf heifers that go through simply b/c a cattleman doenst need any replacements that year or didnt manage them properly. and you'd be surprised at the quality of some dispersals that go thru just b/c some rancher passed away and his wife didnt want to mess with them.
