[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 1639498, member: 694"] I have not bought anything from the young men at J&J it looks to me we should be trying more so to emulate them versus envy. They have an impressive marketing model along with internet auction. They peddle as you say heifers, cows and bulls. Isn’t that the exact same thing the seed stock producer and the auction barn is doing? Aren’t you a cow peddler? With today’s margins looks to me from the outside looking in they found a more efficient mousetrap. There is no advantage to retaining heifers in a crossbred cow calf operation using a terminal bull. The only benefits to retaining is genetic improvement. You better sharpen that pencil that dam returned nothing nor the heifer to the bottom line for two years. You have four years worth of upkeep in two cows, with today’s margins that doesn’t pencil out. [/QUOTE]
