[QUOTE="Matt, post: 7530626, member: 1082"] I dont think people are willing enough to pay for bulls. Whilst what we offer for sale isn't pumped up on bagged feed, as we want to see what genetics and forage can do. We do spend a fair bit on health screening and this year we have fertility tested the bulls. All passed fine, but most of the time the buyer doesn't seem worried about the extra costs. We fertility tested this year more for our peace of mind knowing that any bulls we offer for sale either have good swimmers in them or will have served and settled females in calf, especially when some out there expect a 2 year old bull to do the work of a experienced fit bull. So is my fertility testing a extra not needed expense or valid? [/QUOTE]
