[QUOTE="Brahma Bull, post: 365621, member: 5767"] Morality vs $$$$.Been there and done that.My experience.I took a long shot risk on buying 2 old registered indu-brazilian cattle from a ranch.One had been there show cow,the other had banana leaf ears.The show cow died of old age I think.The other had a prolaps pretty big.Lost this cow this past winter out in the woods.My wife tried to save the calf but after a week lost it too.I had keep these 2 cows almost 3 years,trying to get just 1 calf out of them,gave them every chance in the world.Yeah I should have sold them in the ring after a year.But something told me no.Sending an old show cow to her death in the ring or letting her die of old age out in the country.The other cow at least gave me a calf but lost her life.I hope I did the right thing.$$$$ vs my love for Brahma cows.What about the breeder/rancher that sold them to me.Oh well lessons learned.
