Sunseeker x Who made who bull

orwell · Nov 11, 2009

Would it be a bad idea to keep a sunseekerXwho a bull. He is really big boned and thick and hairy and kinda a cool color. I am just a little conserened since sunseeker has Who made who in his bloodlines, and the calf came a little pre-mature.

Here is a picture of him at 1-2 weeks old.

Honestly i dont think i would get to wound up about it. I have a double bred who bull that as a week early and i keep him a bull. We have used him as a heifer bull and clean-up for 3 years. If it was a mistake it was a really good for me.

No it wouldn't hurt to keep him as a bull as long as he doesn't exhibit any bad traits. He's just a line-bred bull. I would just let him grow some. You have time to watch him develop. If he falls apart as a bull, you can cut him a little later.

From my experience, calves that come early for the most part are from easy calving bulls. That is a plus here for you. Second, the advice to wait and see is great advice. Third, have him tested as Sunseeker is a carrier. Fourth, Best wishes for a great bull.

We had a sunseeker calf that was colored a lot like yours as a calf and all summer but turned solid black this fall. I was hoping he would have stayed the kind of chocolate brown.
