[QUOTE="WindyHillFarm, post: 666462, member: 10671"] Thanks for the info very good information. I am newly back into the field after about 10 years. Of course I want to improve my herd with every breeding and since this one is already done mabye I am hoping for the best. The bull was out in a pasture with more animals than the property could handle with no grass, hay or feed, he was extremely parisidic. Not sure if it is possible that he is under developed do to a lack of nutrients and yet carries the genes that are more desirable but we should find out when the calves hit the ground. I do have some investment into him so at this point will see how he progresses over the next 2-3 months and off to the sale if there is not major improvments as I am not going to feed him this winter, afterall he has come a long way even if it not be what would considered in a herd bull, and does not cost me anything at this point since I have more pasture than I am using with my current herd count. The heifers were almost as bad condition so that part might be luck that they are starting to come along. I started small and am going to get a better quality animals the next introduction into the herd. Part of my motivation was some tax benifits of the property needed to be met in order to keep my agriculture classification after building the house and the price was right. Thanks again for the info. [/QUOTE]
