Good deal on Lowlines??

This seems like a good deal compared to others I've seen. If it's a good enough deal I may be tempted to get started with my new "operation" this fall rather than in the spring.

Of course it's hard to tell by the picture, but what do you think? I wonder what percent the cows are.

I'll recreate the ad below so people can still weigh in after it gets taken down.

"Lowline cows - $1300 (owatonna)
2- 2 year old cows for sale. Have been with full blood lowline bull for 2 months. call for more info."

Seems like a smoking deal. Buy one get one free.

I assume that means $1300 each.

That is how much I paid for mine back in 2007 so I would gather it's a great price in the current market.

Opportunity, do you still have them? How is it going? If not, do you mind if I ask why? Thanks!

I would jump on it if it was in my neighborhood. WE love our percentage lowlines and will slowly but surely get rid of all the larger cows.

You guys have convinced me. I'm working on it. I wish I had a farmer to take with.

Is this an equivalent/better deal because they're fullblood?
