Well I'm really a newbie to the world of purebred cattle. I have raised mixes before but want to try to get some good stock in the spring. What is a reasonable price for quality bred heifers? I'm starting my research now in theory it will give me time to work out the kinks..... I don't want to get soaked purchasing foundation stock.
I can just see it now, newly divorced women walks into a breeders herd. Breeder sees large sucker mark painted on forehead of women. Charges three times going rate. Ex husband falls on floor laughing guts out and says see ranching IS a waste of time ...... ( I swear to G-- that this ranching venture will be successful if it kills me!)Research should keep me from making the gross mistakes.
Forgot I will be purchasing in canada so the rates might be different.
Any help will gladly and greatfully accepted.
My bank manager mentioned leasing a herd and running them for the owner. He says it works rather successfully anyone ever heard of this sort of thing.
