Hi all im from Southeast kansas. i am looking to get into buying some cattle when i get home. i have a couple of questions. first off whats the best kinda breed to get started with,( seems like black cows sell best around here), and also is it more money per head to get into the purebreed cattle. i am looking into buying around 6-7 cow.calf pairs when i first get back. i will have around 10,000$ to start off with cash, becaue i do not want to get into debt starting off. im hoping to build my herd up with just the begining cow/calf pairs and then build on it with the money i make putting it back into the herd buying more and more cows per year. also any begining advice is greatly appreciated, ive worked aorund other peoples cows alot, but never had my own, i am curently only 23 so im gonna give it a try when i get back to the states. thank you all.
