[QUOTE="WAnabee, post: 1838974, member: 42136"] Ha, i figured there was about a 50/50 chance you were serious. I was serious though, here's why: In my area there are several jersey dairies that essentially give away their bull calves. I would think at least one of them could be convinced to AI to a wagyu bull if they would get something for the calves. I sell freezer beef and retail cuts as USDA cut/wrap is available locally. Im pretty sure i could market some "F1 wagyu" beef easier than another cross. This thought of mine is all based on wild speculation that calf prices for the next year or two might make buying feeder calves to raise and sell for beef less attractive, so this could be a way around that. Of course the cows should be getting bred soon if i wanted to sell the beef from the calves by 2026-2027. I dunno I might be getting carried away. I agree also, taking them to my local sale barn you might not recover your gas money. [/QUOTE]
