[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 681853, member: 6897"] This is all well and good if you get good results. Somewhere along the line you realize you're doing pretty darn good at it or you're not good at it at all....I know one man that took the AI course, started breeding dairy cattle and a year latter they were almost out of business because he didnt' get one in 50 bred. This was a big fine operation with lots of money going thru it but not a lot of common sense. They basically started from scratch and bought bulls. When we sold out of the dairy business another dairyman offered my wife $80,000 a year to do nothing but select the sires breed his cattle and that was nearly 10 years ago. [/QUOTE]
