Listen Later

Hi friends!  Today we’re talking about within-breed variation and how it affects the way you select your livestock.  This will help you avoid a common mistake when choosing your first animals – focusing on breed only.  Getting clear on your goals, deciding what traits are important to you, and asking questions to figure out if the livestock you’re looking at will fit your goals and management plan will help you get to success faster when raising livestock.  Let’s get to it!

 

All the Best!
