this reply is for hunting all the way, firstly money does not come into it at all, you said this method would probably be easier and cheaper my self i cant see that as the sire is about five hours drive away! and the brother is about two hours away, which i add i will happily do if thats what i decide on. finally even if the breeding does go ahead none of these will be sold only given to close mates who i know would give honest feed back, good or bad. atb dt
