[QUOTE="A.J., post: 1641144, member: 13664"] :welcome: It’s nice to be able to see the sire and dam or the bull bred to of any cattle I’m looking at purchasing to have an idea what they might turn out like, but I dont think providing registration papers of the sire and dam of them would necessarily help a commercial/crossbred heifer bring more or sell faster. If the cattle’s genetics are from a proven program, it might be helpful to mention which one they came from when advertising them. For example if someone was selling F-1 Brangus heifers, they might say they were out of Angus cows and J.D. Hudgins Brahman bulls. Some buyers that might not mean much to, but that might be a good selling point with others. When I’m looking at buying, I definitely think it’s a good sign if someone is familiar with their cattle and can tell some history on them. Good cattle will sell themselves when folks see them.
