Well, yes, they are sold when they can’t be breed and produce milk...The male calves are also sold for beef...Only a few bulls are kept for sperm production and most of the breeding is artificial insemination...
My deceased father in law was a breeder and a diary farmer...
My family worked strictly with beef....

We’ve raised a few beef steer through the years. Looking forward to doing it again. Nothing better!
