[QUOTE="rfranches, post: 528020, member: 8197"] Because of our remote location- there are no sales that are close. At least 4 to 5 hours to get to a sale and usually they occur on weekdays which conflicts with our jobs. So unfortunately we dont really have the luxury of attending a sale. All of the purebred sales took place in Feb and March so we are a little late in the season (plus we arent ready for the cost of purebreds until we learn with something cheaper). We have $5000-6000 to invest in a starter heard and are really just looking for some quality stock to get our feet wet- but want to make an educated purchase so we can hopefully make a little money once we re-sell them. We were looking at getting only heifer calves with the pairs and then buying a bull to breed those down the line. [/QUOTE]
