Before I would start using this ad  I think I would learn how to spell "Charolais".

Raymond do you have any good pictures of his dam. I realize he is probably a terminal sire.

no I don't have a photo of his dam...and I wouldn't necessarily say he is a terminal sire, there is no heatwave in his blood at all, he is fairly outcross to many of the terminally bred clubby cows I feel he will make some great char cross clubby females as well as steers

cool looking dude.

i am kinda liking the pictures of these young bulls not fitted to the extreme. just a clip job is fine. kinda shows the owners are confident in him.

Personally I'd rather see them all with 1/4 inch of hair and take someone's word about whether they can grow it or not than seeing them with more hair than most calves and taking someone's word that there is substance underneath.  that said i do like him and Please please please follow Mark's advice and fix Charolais...as a char breeder that especially jumped at me as I was reading.  Nice bull and good luck with him  <cowboy>

I like the overall design and the photo is of perfect qaulity but think the calf is still a bit green for a great pic. Calf may need about two more months to grow into himself.

Looks super cool, naval looks a bit big, born in june worries me becasue clearly clubby and june = almost a garauntee of no semen for next breeding season. "charolais" better fix that.
Nice bull cool name even

Ever body spells Charolais wrong, it seems ,but proably the worst one is the last time I registered cattle in AICA it was spelled wrong on applications an it has been that way for 2-3 years, FOR SURE  ..Maybe they have found it recently....Very nice looking calf ,one question I have how many of these clubby sires are DNA tested to verify what there suppose to be out of , there really is no requirements to cause a lot of them are not registered ...  I used some of the young bull ANARCHY ON MY FALL CALVES FOR NEXT YEAR ..

There is already a bull named 8 Seconds if it matters to you.

JW, what is the other bull named 8 seconds.

Also it wouldn't be the 1st time it happened, heck a few years ago there were 2 Texas Hold Em's in 1 year.
