[QUOTE="3waycross, post: 679377, member: 6713"] As much as I respect Bez I am gonna differ with him a bit here. First. the 3 yr old is not so horrible that she should go. I have seen worse praised here. She's just not great. I think a lot of her problem is condition. Which leads me to Number two. Get that calf off of her, and get them both a health program The fact that they are in NC and not slick this time of year tells me they are hungry, wormy, and probably mineral deficient. Number three. Do whatever it takes to get that 1 1/2 yr old off of your place, she's not what you want to raise calves off of, and for sure not the future of anyone's herd. Number four. I actually like the 6 month old and if that's her mother in the background of that picture she's not bad for her age size wise. Number five and MOST important. Find yourself a Mentor. Someone with some cow smarts can and will save you thousands. Especially if they are unbiased and don't have a dog in the fight so to speak. I would be leery of taking advice from anyone who is in a position to profit from your choices. [/QUOTE]
