Angus Bull: Coneally Lead On

[Stihlpro]

Anyone ever use him?  If so what are some strengths/weaknesses.

We used alot of him for two years. Some people got along very good with him. But here is what happened with us, we kept alot of the heifers as replacements, they bred very well and looked the part of being maternal type cattle, but they calved and this is where our problem started, they calved and just left the calf, they acted like they did not Even have one, they did not lick the calf off, nothing. Lets just say after about the 10Th lead on that did that they were all gone! That did a really good job of pissing me off. Not all of them did it but about 1/3 of them did. We figured that was a big enough part of them and just figured we would eliminate a problem so we sold all of them.

FWIW: Used him with good results. But we backgrounded all the calves steers or heifers.

Don't know if the bull was pushed as a cow maker.

I used him a few years ago. His calves were very gentle... other than that, he was just another angus bull.

He bred different than I expected, bigger,  nice calves, pretty averave, BUT  if you need semen on him I will sell some REAL CHEAP....

Good on capacity, muscle (for an Angus), and disposition. Average calving ease. The heifers are plainer looking, not the pretty, feminine Angus female.
