And so when I heard that, and then this had this bull that left the
uh, last Memorial day weekend, I was like, we're done with breeding bulls.
And I just, I'm all about having our ranch and our herd be as natural as possible.
And so that really appealed to me.
And so last summer was our first experiment with it.
And it was so cool because in June, you've got all these two-year-old bulls running around and it's like kind of whatever.
And then by late July, there was one guy who I was like, Oh, you're the man.
Like he was fighting off other bulls.
Like he clearly was the guy.
And then, uh, and then we work our animals once a year in the winter where we move them into corral and, you know, ear tag the calves and we preg check the females.
So I was kind of curious to see what this experiment would do.
And last year was our, our highest breed up rate ever.
So all of our cows that were supposed to be bred, only one wasn't.
And, and so now this, you know, letting, letting a bunch of two-year-olds take care of it is our path going forward.
It's kind of cool.
It's random.
It's totally random.
