Bulls for 2011

[WIshowgirl]

Okay, here is the thing. We have purebred Angus cows and want to get some colored calves, whether they have a white face or are smokey.
What bulls throw good calves and that we might have a chance of getting some color on the calves.

A couple I saw, just wondering if anyone had heard anything about them:  Young Money (Trausch Farm), White Noise (Trausch Farm), Long Time Coming (Top Sires), Bodacious (Top Sires).

I was also looking at Shorthorn bulls, would they give us some color? Such as: Sin City, Phildon Get Serious, Salute, etc.

I really like long time coming, good maternal genetics.  We had a good purebred angus cow bred to naughty pine and we got a red calf.  Any heat wave genetics you have a chance to get color.  Don't waste your time on shorthorns.  Another is Captain Morgan, i have a good smokey steer out of him.  So there are some options.  Good luck.

We used the shorthorn bull Vegas on three angus  cows and got three blue calves.

We just bred my angus cow to the Simmi bull Chopper. I have heard a lot of good things about this bull and saw some really great calves in Griswold's sale. He is also a baldy so he should throw some color!

ive seen many white noise calves. and seen the bull in person at a sale. he and his calves are not something i would ever want to reccomend to you. im stopping at that but my reccomendation is dont do it. . . captian morgan is by FAR the best up and coming bull, we have an orange calf out of him that i absolutley love (biggest fault with the calf is that he belongs to my brother not me). carpe diem could throw some color on them also
