Man if you plain on staying in the cows and want to keep them around!! Go buy you some hiefers all the same age make sure you buy what fits your land then buy a Corrinte Bull for them for the first year the calfs will hit the ground running!! We tryed this on 50 heifers and palpated.. 47 bred out of 50 with a 100% calf crop on 47 head 1 still born!! Thats good odds in the cow industry!! The second crop swap bulls to what you like!!Still with a low birth wait!!I run Charolais,Brangus,Herford bulls for years!!I have been culling hard on cows and keeping lots of heifers because of the market!!So the only bulls I am running Now is the Brangus and one Full Brahman!!But if you buy cows from a barn remember they age by teeth and the more Brahman in the the younger they show!! I have sold 12 year old cow that they have said were 6 and 7!!! It is alot easier on me to raise heifers all the same age!!! If you never have a cow die then your not in cow business!! If I can be any help let me know!!
