in the article it says it costs 15,000 for a cloned animal instead of 2000 for a natural birth animal. So it would actually send the price of meet up. But it is a novel concept like the Chick-fil-A comericals say Eat mor Chiken

Yes the article also mentioned using the cloned steers semen, and the eggs from the cloned heifers.
So I'd imagine at first the cost would be higher, then eventually decrease.
Although I'm not sure how much it would cost to artificially inseminate a heifer...
I believe the main concern with this issue are the possible mutations that may occur from cloning.
Then again three hind quarters instead of two would drop the price... [&:]

I done understand how someone can have moral issues with cloning or eating cloned meat. Thats downright foolish

Every year we raise 3 cows, 3 pigs, and 2 sheep which we slaughter and pass out throughout my family/friends and eat all year. Theres nothing like home grown steak, better than just about anything youll ever buy....
