Had 1 and it was a monster. It was the cow's 4th or 5th calf so I wasn't overly concerned about bw but this one didn't make it. Maybe other people and better luck. Heard they sold quite a bit of semen I expected more calf pics than what I've seen
Is the experience for the kids worth the drive and the time going to one of the Jr nationals? Considering it but not sure what to take as far as age class to show in.
As far as a price range I'm in I really don't know. $30,000 is not an option but I have a pretty open budget. I guess it all depends on how bad I think I need what I see.
Thanks again for all the responses. I actually feel like I gained some positive knowledge out of this and selecting the next animals to add to the herd. Thanks again
Thanks for the replies. I'm more interested in going to Cates and Sullivan's I guess to see the quality first hand and who knows may find a deal on one. A trip to Iowa may just workout too I always see a lot of sales come fall time out there.
Looking to pick up a show heifer this summer/fall. Any places that have some high quality animals kind of under the radar? I'd like to get to Cates and sullivans sales but not sure on what they avg at their sales
