This has been also discussed before, but as threads get pushed down, they are less likely to get read.

Anyways, I started just as you. Problem is that I started getting attached to my moms, some of the more "cute" hoppers, etc.

It's too easy to say, "lets keep the blond one, and use it for breeding stock, hey that one has a lightning bolt pattern on it's head or this one looks just like a little Holstein cow.

Then when the moms start looking at you with evil glares, "you may be feeding me, but you keep stealing my babies"

Frozen starts sounding more attractive by the minute. and since you care about being humane, that says you have compassion, that equals the scenario I just described.

Good luck,

Wayne A. Harvey
