[QUOTE="JustSimmental, post: 889797, member: 14624"] The best reasons have already been stated because knowing what you have based on their mommas performance is worth so much more than just a heifer you bought somewhere. I have been in the PB Simm business now for 30 years and it took me a long, long, long time to get a herd of cattle that I could be proud of because many breeders in my area were and are still breeding junk cattle. It is really sad in some cases. As a PB breeder, I believe that it is our main job to only offer the best cattle for sale to the potential buyer, because a return customer is always better than a one-time-sale. I started out with Fleckvieh Simms and bred them up to now top 5 to 1% in the nation. Nowadays, bull calves are sold, sometimes, the day they are born. I have some really great customers and new ones all the time, because we have always stood behind the cattle we offer for sale. Here is an example: 3/4 simm/angus bull calf > [url]https://herdbook.simmental.org/simmapp/template/animalSearch%2CAnimalSearch.vm/action/animalSearch.AnimalSearchAction;jsessionid=076055CACEE57F47A2FB8C1E3D2F3B9B.tomcat2A[/url] -- I hope that link worked, but if not his Reg # is 2606978. Here is a heifer calf born this year --she ranks in the top 1% of any PB Simm or percentage female nationwide. [url]https://herdbook.simmental.org/simmapp/action/animalSearch.AnimalSearchAction?eventSubmit_displayAnimal=T&animalNumber=2606984[/url] Reg # 2606984 We sell these type heifers every year, for a price. They demand it because of the time it would take a person to do what we did and breed them up to top 1%. Raising your own heifers is the way to go.... JS [/QUOTE]
