[QUOTE="George Monk, post: 195585, member: 3545"] I am currently in the 10 yr process of developing a registered angus herd. What bulls would be the leading canidate to build a herd around? What characteristics would be the leading selection criteria? We currently have only 4 registered cows that are Dateline and Diversity daughters. We also have 30 commercial cows to use as recipients. This spring I have a tremendous opportunity through ET to increase our numbers rapidly. I don't know the genetics of the embryos which sounds irresponsible but understand this is a unique opportunity that doesn't happen to everybody. I feel confident that this will allow me to get started and then I can improve from there. My ultimate goal is to end up with about 100-150 registered cows of which 1/2 would be used to breed for registered bulls and bred heifers and the other 1/2 crossed with hereford and charlois to produce commercial bred heifers. I understand that I have lots of variable left out of these questions but your input would still be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
