Talked to three people that have Point Taken calves, they all like them alot, not very big when they are born.
How are the highlander calves?

a couple people on here have had i am legends. i believe both were fairly easy coming and were thick and big boned, as expected.

Had a Meyer Meyer heifer calf yesterday, 80 lbs. out of a Maine cow. Nice stout blocky calf, with good bone and hair. We will get pics after things dry out around here. We also had an Untouchable heifer calf (Simmi cow) a few weeks ago 96 lbs. unassisted, getting better by the day. I posted pics the day she was born, but will post again in a few weeks since someone already requested one month pics.

I want a report if you don't mind on CRIMSON TIDE calves. Especially if they are out of straight bred shortie cows.

I was waiting for one more Crimson Tide so I apologize for the delay.

Point Taken I used on an Angus Twister cow: Super complete, sound, tons of body (not all from the cow) thick enough for sure, lots of bone and hairy. I can honestly say he looks just like his daddy, maybe a little softer and good fronted. Worked like he was supposed to so far.

I Am Legend. I used on a Meyer daughter. Super thick, square hip, tons of bone and hair(most impressive is how clean jointed the calf is for the amount of bone she has) She's growing in to the front end, looks like she'll be OK there. Decent center body but not great, time will tell. Overall, very happy and optimistic.

Crimson Tide. Used on Angus and Angus cross cows. OK, this one gets interesting....first and foremost do not even try to judge the calves until they are 2 days or older. They come fairly small and gangly and have you concerned. By day 2 you are super excited. VERY hairy, good bone, VERY good fronted, sound thick. If they make as much improvement for week 1 to week 2 as they did from Day 1 to Day 2 I will breed him to the entire farm.

Thanks,

Cowman

With the expo coming up I am glad you said something. Mr Lautner will be at our expo here in Ohio. I was thinking of buying some semen. thank you!
So your meyer meyer were acceptable. I have a simmi x direct hit daughter that usually puts fair amount of bone on them. I was wondering if he would work on her. She is freak necked.

Crimson Tide is registered appendix shorthorn with a bw of 74#'s that is encouraging.

 

[TMJ Show Cattle]

That is very encouraging OH Breeder[crimson tide] I've been waiting as patiently as possible for reports on this bull.Have a friend in Oklahoma that has 2 coming in April. Was sure someone had March calves coming from him. Didn't use him,was waiting for his first crop of calves. I hope he works.

Anyone use Highlander or hear of any calves?

Anyone use the Th/PHA free Apollo bull; a Sunseeker son?
Best clubby calf here is out of him and dammed by a Heatwave daughter.
This could be the best clubby calf that has been raised here;
Too bad it is a heifer; would be worth more as a steer.
Will try and get a picture up of her end of this week when I have some help.
I am computer challenged!

Also have 5 I Am Legend calves on the ground; 4 more Apollo calves and a Hannibal calf.
Will be getting more I Am Legend calves and also some Alias calves pretty quick here.

I used Apollo natural, he worked on a wide range of cows, I did not get a single throw away. The ones I had were small at birth, 60-75 pounds, they seem to be growing well in the feedlot. I sold the top end calves. They were younger as I used him as a clean up bull, they were May calves. Sold one for $4000 and another 2 for$1800. The bull looks very good, he's standing out in the lot right now. The best one out of him that I had was a hfr. out of a strickly bus. cow born in june. I'm keeping her back in the herd.
