Been using Mo Better for a long time. Had 10 or 12 myself and have bred cows for people and used him on all types. Only time I have seen alot of white (full bald head, socks, belly...) is on some holstein x simmy recips that I didn't have eggs for so I used him and they got really chromed up. Just haven't got a smoking good heifer to keep out of him yet. Why I bred that angus cow to him try and make a baldy half blood.


Bred a rwf hereford angus cow tonight that has Headliner twins on her to FIREWATER. Want to make an orange colored calf! See what happens.

I love the purebred angus x mo better mating.  Mine have made super cows and if you are lucky you may get a little white on the face.  Good luck.

The Angus/ Mo better mating will be a really great one! Mo magic is out of Mo Better and is 3/4 Simmental, and you could get one that looks similar to him! The Unique simmental bull has thrown some calves with toplines that aren't as straight as other bulls, but from a commercial standpoint it wouldn't matter too much.

I just bought the Unique bull to be nice to my Accelerated guy and his pedigree is kind of outcross.

Bred another angus cow that is as long as a train this am to EYE CANDY. Nice cool weather should be great for sticking them!
