Client purchased 8 breeding heifers at $8,000. I am unclear if I'm allowed to state total purchase price and which depreciation method I use?

If they're still heifers, they haven't been placed in service and you don't start depreciation until they are.

Once they start calving what depreciation method will I use?

If you're going to do farm returns, download and study IRS Pub 225, including the depreciation information on Page 42.
