attached are two calves.  the first is a calf out of a calf i sold by the mother of the calf in the pasture.  supposedly she has done decent showing.

the eating out of the bucket calf is out of an irish whiskey son, 2nd is by wild turkey, also a wild turkey son.  the 2nd calf is preg to occ night watch for jan2013.  both are polled. both may be red carriers.

what would you breed them both too?  the first heifer for show steers, the 2nd heifer to retain % maine at 5/8 or 3/4 for next calf.

i do have some montego bay semen!

The blacks are needed to see what the Fullbloods work on from commercial to percentage.

I would breed the 1 with bucket-to a roan or white CE shorthorn-or Hardings Capital Gains(if he has enough guts)-for black-there are a slew of them-and the bull you have semen on is as good as any-and probably more commercially acceptable-as for BWS and performance.I dont know if Cunia would make one too straight-but hes sure been a standard.
