We've had a couple of real chrome jobs this year as well. We've steered them both. First calf (6A) is straight Shorthorn and the second one (8A) is 3/4 Shorthorn out of an f1  Short x Simm cow.

We've always used 9 months 10 days as a general rule of thumb. Seems to be pretty well right on although it will vary from one bull to another.

Our two herd sires. Roan bull is a son of Muridale Buster 14K out of an Alta Cedar Ultimate daughter. Red bull is a son of Saskvalley Bonanza out of an MF Royal 570 daughter.

Just thought I'd add another pic to the thread. Here's a Shorthorn sired calf (3 weeks old) standing next to his mom - a Simm x Short cow.

You need to sharpen your pencil. Aussie paid $1568.18 for the steer not $3450. 2300 lbs. divided by 2.2 lbs to the kg equals 1045.4545 kg. 1045.4545 kg. x $1.50 = $1568.18

Sorry, I thought it would be obvious that the weights were not adjusted weaning weights. They are the actual weights of the calves as they ran across the scales the day we took them off their mothers - the weights we would be paid on if there were a buyer there that day.

Trevorgrey: Thought I'd put on paper what our Shorthorns did from last year's calf crop. First of all we do not creep feed our calves - what you see is done on moma's milk and grass only. 31 calves - all sired by our Shorthorn bull, Muridale Touchdown (a Saskvalley Bonanza son) out of Shorthorn...

Congrats, I like your calf. I guess we're off and running as well. Our first of the year is this bull calf by Muridale Touchdown 63T (Saskvalley Bonanza son) out of our Secret cow family.

We have six Shorthorn heifers consigned to the 2011 Autumn Classic Shorthorn Sale. These are sound useful heifers sired by our walking herdsire Muridale Touchdown (by Saskvalley Bonanza) and Muridale Buster 2nd. (AI)  Good Eastern Canadian genetics on offer. Did you know that a calf purchased...

We have always bred our heifers to calve at 24 months of age. I know that some of you calve earlier than that so I was wondering....how young is too young? We have a couple of yearling heifers - good shape - and would like to breed them to calve around 21 to 22 months. Anyone had any difficulty...

An absolutely sweet heifer top to bottom and front to back! Good luck with her.

What did the embryo lots bring?

We've raised Shorthorns for going on 40 years now and have had our share of white females. We have two white cows in our herd at the present time. In those 40 years I can only recall one white female that wouldn't breed. Doesn't seem like too big of a problem - at least for us.

Welcome to the Shorthorn family! Shorthorns may not be perfect (most breeds have their shortfalls) but they do a lot of things really well and have a lot to offer the beef industry. We've raised Shorthorns on our farm for the past 38 years (after starting with another breed) and have only come...

We're running Muridale Touchdown 63T. He's a son of Saskvalley Bonanza 219M from the Muridale herd of Saskatechewan. Easy calver, good disposition, exceptional growth.

We give 50 - 60cc's of Liquamycin LA200. That works for us and you'll see results within a day or two.
