[QUOTE="Angus Cowman, post: 816445, member: 8829"] I don't understand your logic here if he uses a like set of cows and breeds them to a terminal set of like bulls his calves should be more consistent than a crayon box set of cows bred to the same bulls I had a post about this a few months ago as for leaving money on the table I really don't see how because that set of calves should top the market wherever they are over a set of crayon box cows where there is no consistency in color or size of calves which often occurs in calves ot of crossbred cows Ashton I agree with your friend Baldie maker retaining hfrs and making a set of brood cows is ok but I don't see how anyone with just a few hd of cows (less than 50) can ever afford to keep the replacements and build a set of brood cows I am not just meaning afford in the $$$ sense but with the time it will take to get enough replacements to build a herd it would be a long process taking several yrs and will take several $$$ along the way when a person is starting out they would be better off just buying the type of cows they want since they are buying cows anyway [/QUOTE]
