[QUOTE="LauraleesFarm, post: 769599, member: 14261"] I want to thank you for fighting for my freedom and for fighting against terrorism. :tiphat: You have already gotten some great advice here.....I LOVE my herefords and I especially LOVE my Braford and Tigerstripes. I have a small herd, just an amateur. I like a little hereford and Brahman blood in everything! you should be able to buy a nice little starter herd. I'd buy heifer pairs and 3 in 1's if I were you. Before too long, your friend will need a new/different bull if he is keeping any of the daughters. Maybe at that point the two of you could partnership on a good bull. If not, then AI is definitely the way to go. One word of advice on AI that I picked up off this board.....if the cows/heifers are high strung and easily upset by being handled you will have a hard time getting them to settle with AI. In order to AI you will need calm gentle cows/heifers that don't get terribly upset about being put in the squeeze and getting a shot. There are MANY AI semen vendors online that you can go ahead and be shopping for your baby-daddys. That should keep you busy for a while! May all your cow dreams come true..... [/QUOTE]
