[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1183380, member: 9096"] I say do what brings you pleasure.. You like your cows, and you seem to know where to buy cows you like, so it seems to really be a moot point for you. You seem to have started off on the right foot, barring any really big blunders I think you can easily at least maintain the quality you have. When you see a heifer you like, keep her, or if she's not yours, buy her. I'm 36, coming up onto my 23rd calving season here, I've seen where my animals have come, it has been a long ways with a lot of troubles that could have been avoided if we'd been smarter when we started. Not all my cows are ideal, but I do have some I consider dandys. I think I finally have a good idea where I'm trying to go with the phenotypes, but even I wonder if I will live long enough to be able to get consistent quality from them. It may not be the fastest way to achieve my goals, but I chose to only keep heifers I raise, at this point I can tell you the lineage up to 5 generations back on every animal here. [/QUOTE]
