Thanks! And have you had any calves out of him? When you do let me know! I really just want to build a high quality herd of commercial cattle so that i can breed them to whoever i want and get quality calves to sell. I want a herd of cows that do not miss. Really tough order, but hopefully will...

Oh ok yeah sorry about that. New to this whole embryo thing. Hoping the calves tjat are produced will be nice receipts and possibly a nice herd bull. 2 of the embryos are sexed females.

Ok ya we did. The embryologist is a veterinarian and a company out of illinois goes out west and purchases receipts. They do many every year. Their success rate is about 60 to 66%.

No definitely not. Im looking down the road. Breeding cattle is a long process if u do it right

Like most people on this website, I want to raise show calves and sell them one day. We just bought some embryos out of Dixie Erica 258 x Jade's Dreamworks and some from Misss Anchor x WAGR Driver. They will be insemintated within a gew weeks. I really want to build a good simmental/angus herd...

Thanks! Hopefully he will start adding some width to his top. I think that will help him in the overall width aspect.

This is my monopoly x dr. Who steer. He was born in February and is registered maine. He is not clipped and super hairy. Showing him at the Hoosier Beef Congress in a few weeks.sorry that the pics aren't the best.

You could try putting an ad in one of the show magazines. For me, I've just looked at show steers under my state and clicked on the websites that were updated. I hate seeing websites that are close to a sale and haven't been updated in 2 or more years.

I'm wanting to do the same but I'm looking for maternal females with little clubby in them. For example I'm looking into buying embryos from an angus donor and a half blood Simmental. The other is a Simmental female with a Simmental bull that is not related to almost every other bull on the...

Ok that makes more sense. The guy I'm talking to has Simmental based donors out of Meyer 734, Irish Whiskey, Dream On, and Duff Angus females. I told him I was wanting maternal packages for the cheaper end at around $300 an embryo. I was wanting to buy 3 sets of packages because he guarantees a...

Ok well we've found people to put the embryos in and then buy the cow from them. But I need help on knowing where to buy the embryos, because there are not a lot of sales going on right now. I also need help on what genetics I need to try and get. I'm not looking for a train wreck say clubby on...

No problem Mr. Terembes! I plan on using him on another cow when I catch her in heat in a few weeks. I will keep you updated on conception and hopefully the calves next spring. Did you raise him or buy him?

My AI tech suggested him to me over Walks Alone and Believe in Me. He said that the calves were very consistent, moreso than MAB. He also said that the semen was potebt stuff and have a very high return of cows that stuck. I used him last night so we will see what happens. Any other advice would...
