[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1500825, member: 14585"] Santa Gertrudis are very fine cattle for hot dry climates and I assume you have harsh conditions in New Mexico. For 2 years old he looks small and lacking in masculinity. I don't know the market where you're located, but a bull of his quality would bring up to 95 cents a pound around here. Other than wanting $1500 in his pocket, why does your 'buddy' want you to buy/use this bull? Can your cows wean a 570 lb calf and breed back in a timely manner under your conditions and feed available to them? It sounds as if you are keeping and breeding all your heifers, if so calving ease should be a priority and a black angus would be more suitable. [/QUOTE]
