I would guess him at 2500 pounds. He is a very easy keeping Bull , he only had hay since he was a yearling. His daughters are the same.

I agree his frame and weight are close to ideal for me. What I like most about him is his front 1/3. His head, jaw, and chest are perfect as far as I'm concerned in regard to masculinity. His front 1/3 tells the story for his back 2/3. We need more Shorthorn Bulls that look like this, and less that look like...... Well we all know..........

We are planning on drawing semen on him this fall.
This is Muridale Robby 12P , the dam of him. She is a maternal sister to Muridale Buster 14K.

get a half sib the other way and mate them.

dang, you are almost there.

you probably already do.

robby seems to have the best udder.

looking at the cows, i would say stay on the bottom side of her which you did my buying him back but added bonanza.

i think you are almost done.

What a great animal!
Looking at his dam, one can see she never misses a beat. The Milking Shorthorn% might help with that? Here's a photo of her sire.
If I could, I would use this bull on the daughters of the bull Paintvalley has, or had- Balmoral Oaks Eagle 9X- a Bonanza grandson..

Actually I wouldn't use ultimate based on the narrow base of his udders and complete lack of circumference around his front rib. 


In fact, I would eliminate him.
