[QUOTE="Whitepeak, post: 2434652, member: 45704"] Talking to a now ex-Cogent rep before Christmas and he was saying in a few yrs most bull studs won't keep bulls long enough to get to the stage of being proven. They'll be collected as genomic bulls and then they'll get rid of them and move onto the next bulls. Kinda makes sense from a business/financial sense (as well as a genetic progress one), as to get to proven you have to keep a bull that's doing nothing for 3-4yrs, which must cost a bit. You've also no guarantee that bull you've kept will make the grade. [/QUOTE]
