    Give CC&7 a look.  He usually adds a little frame size and his numbers are good but not extreme.

    Angus Bull help - Malsons Cobra

    Had a few confidence calves last year (a neighbor of mine used him too) with no calving problems.  My biggest calf weighed 71 lbs.  I'm not sure they grew as well as I would like. I'm a big fan of Hoover Dam.  The best bull I sold this year was sired by him.  I have a few younger ones coming on...

    Help with some Angus bulls

    I've been nothing but impressed with the CC&7 calves we've had.  And I really like the looks of the ones in Hoover Angus sale catalog.  I haven't had any issues with frame size with my Hoover Dams and I've had a couple out of some smaller framed cows. My experience with CC&7 is that he adds a...

    Help with some Angus bulls

    If you're looking for good dispositions, I've had really good luck using CC&7 and Hoover Dam.  Both are calving ease and have some grow too.  I've not been around any calves sired by the two bulls you mentioned.  My Select Sires rep says Regis is getting some good calves though.  His only knock...

    help with eye problem

    If you've never seen the third eyelid sewn shut, it works very well.  Just one stitch with catgut suture to hold the third eyelid over the eye.  The suture disolves in 1-2 weeks and the eyelid opens back up.  Works just like a patch without the trauma of removing the patch.  Working as a vet...

    help with eye problem

    I've had this happen twice so far this winter.  The first, I took to the vet and he injected the eye with antibiotics then sewed the third eyelid shut.  The second, I treated daily with antibiotic eye ointment.  Both healed up nicely. You do need to check for anything in the eye though.  Flush...

    Funds for Cattle Show

    I have pounded the pavement for donors too.  Have you considered sponsorships?  Set up amounts for banners/signs to be displayed around the ring, booth space, etc. and sell these to local businesses (feed stores, farms, etc.).

    Card Uproar 49Y

    Do you have any pics of your females?  A friend bought a few straws to use on his SimAngus females.  I was thinking of breeding a Pioneer Angus cow to a Simmy and thought Uproar looked interesting.  What does he do for frame size?  My Pioneer cow is smaller framed and I'd like to increase frame...
