    Ideas on long term handover of operation

    I would recommend talking with a good estate planner/tax attorney there are ways to do it to prevent taxes killing you when something happens to your Grandparents or your parents. Pre-planning is the smart thing to do for sure. We started working with a tax attorney 10 years ago and slowly but...

    S A V Final Answer vs. Juneau 807J

    I sure understand where your coming from. That is why I rarely use a young bull from and AI stud I use the wait and see approach. I have seen a number of FA bulls that I have liked, but the proof is in how the daughters work, and it takes years to really know the answer to that. I sure did...

    S A V Final Answer vs. Juneau 807J

    Both have really good dispositions the Lucy's boy is really quiet which suprises me because Lucy's Boys usually have a little fire in them. The A47 cow is also pretty tame but did show some agressive behavior right after calving, but settled down after a week or so. That doesn't bother me as...

    I have...

    We sent an entire genetic line to the sale barn for feet as you described. To be honest we thought the older cow had the problem due to a case of foot rot so we trimmed her put her back out. This year we found that her first daughter had the same problem. We loaded both of them and their...

    BC Matrix

    We have some Matrix daughters in production, they are long and deep with beautiful udders, he worked for us. That being said a good friend used him after seeing our heifers and it was not good he got tall and narrow, so I guess it is how you mate him. Gizmom
