Heres another idea BB.... The bull you got aint worth squat, yall pool your money and buy you a heckav bull... maybe a Casey of Lasater.. you can all three use him and collect him..... If your gonna raise seedstock cattle that are gonna be worth a hoot you are gonna have to get some good proven bloodlines in there....not some of this your buddys is doing you a favor bull...
Sorry if I am coming down kinda ruff on you, but, this idea you have that you can raise seedstock with poor quality commercial bulls just aint gonna cut it. If I as a commercial bull buyer saw the bull that you have for your current sire....Im afraid I might bite my lip off , to keep from laughing.
Now if you dont trust these fellas forget this idea, and do it alone.
