12k

last year at denver the lady from Trans Ova said somthihng like 20k for just the DNA marking of what ever you call it

Well Its 25 to 30k when I last looked into it so for 12k that is  pretty good.

but if anyone wants to clone an american steer for a bull i have one that definately needs to be considered he is a heatwave X american cow.

Do you mean the calf you said got third in his class?

why don't you just breed to cowtown?  he's a double carrier and a clone from  a steer.  he also won some big show.  big deal.  semen sales are through the basement.  no one's even mentioned using him on here.  there must be some calves out of him somewhere.

yes that would be that steer he is pretty cool i was mainly just playing with the idea no intent to ever do it i have just had a few guys inquire on him as a bull as he would be a really cool one just to be honest not to sure how it would work, like i said just an idea never really had any intent of anthing

I went back and looked at him in the showbox under champion ABC steer, your not kidding.. he is a very nice animal.

I would suggest you call Trans Ova/Bovance to get current prices.  I stopped at their booth in Denver and was asking some questions about their services,I know they told me they have one cloning program that starts at $16,000 per calf and goes down from there with volume.
