We have a powerfully designed Strictly Business x Full Flush cow that I am entertaining the idea of flushing.  This is a picture of her when she was shown a few years ago.  She, herself, is a flushmate to the dam of Ocho Cinco, Shea Geffert's new Heat Wave promotional bull.  I would like to hear Maine-Anjou and Club Calf bull ideas and options.

Thank you,

I have never heard of the bull named "You Just Sell Her To Me".  What is the breeding on him?

That was a pretty good one, Buckeye.

Have you ever heard of the bull, "After I Flush Her, I'll Entertain The Idea Of Selling Her"?

CHECKBOOK was the sire of "you just sell her to me"
and CASH  is what made The Idea of Selling her- pretty hot ,  I am  sure Big Bucks was the sire of Cash?

One and only might work but he is TH clean and if the cow is also which looking at her and her pedigree would be my guess.  You are not going to get the hair you need with that cross.

I would recommend a TH positive bull to give you the hair on 50% of the offspring.  I can go out in the pasture with the embryo calves and you can tell a difference between flush  mates that are clean versus TH positive.

Pat, How have you guys been?

HW on SB has worked well.  Dr Who is a good suggestion as well as it has worked good for us.

Thank you for all the replies and suggestions; I appreciate it.  Tony, we are doing well.  The calves look good, and everyone is healthy.

Exactly. You'd have a full sib in blood to a promo bull. That imo is the best way to go. Its already a proven mating. Try that, see where it gets you, and if it doesnt work out how you'd of liked it too, then I would definitely go with Dr. Who.

Here is a more recent picture of the Strictly Business x Full Flush cow; to the right of her is an Ali x Heisman cow that will be bred to One and Only.

Thanks again for all the suggestions.  I do know that Heat Wave would possibly work; however, we are trying not to infuse any potential TH carriers in our program.  I, too, realize that a THC bull would possibly add some attractive attributes to this cow's offspring.  We are still pondering our choice.

Thanks again,

Pat Wolfe

Yes, we will be offering embryo packages and entire flushes on this cow in the future. 

Thank you for the kind words and inquiring about the Business cow.
