    What Simmental Heifer Bull to use on Chopper x Angus Heifers?

    Yes I know I have used hundreds of units of him and have seen some Chopper heifers calved out and I do not feel IDT CE is enough for them as they come pretty square and blocky. That's why I suggested using Angus.

    What Simmental Heifer Bull to use on Chopper x Angus Heifers?

    In Dew Time is a Dream On X Lucky Dice. Buddy mine kept back a few Chopper heifers. They were small framed and even smaller pelvis area. If mine I'd use a highy proven angus bull to use on them that could add some frame and some maternal calving ease. Shear Force great CE but to small. In Dew...

    What were your booms and Busts of breading this year?

    Booms: Long Shear Pleasure x Grandmaster for a PB Simmental heifer. Awesome but solid black. Pericles (Galloway) x PB Char. Silver with star on head and holy smokes hair! Her mother was a heifer and was bloated before calving and must have let fluid go or something and passed away. Slight bust...

    opinions on easy calving bulls

    Right Answer, come easy, grow fast and look good doing it. Ours was 68 out of shorthorn heifer. Never seen a calf up and going so fast. Buddy mine used 50 units last year on Limi, Limflex, SimAngus heifers. Every heifer not related to him with get Right Answer now on his farm.

    Grandmaster calves starting to hit the ground

    I hate the bulls picture, his numbers and most everything about him. Went to a sale last fall and came home with a bred and open tho! The bred is a whale. Had a Long Shear Pleasure solid black heifer calf 70 pounds and what a perfect uddered cow. Someone told me Grandmasters will strip the white...

    Different kinda perfect calf.......

    Good to hear Limiman,   I had some recips that were May calves we bred right with the rest of my heifers for 2-22 calves and all 3 of them laid down and spit them out. I used Dikeman's Sure Bet and a Pharo bull to see if I could make them a little more hardy. But now for the clubby heifers to...

    First calf from herd bull

    First calf from herd bull

    Between 65 and 70 so was scale bouncing or was it a guess? I had 3 heifers side by side tonight and a guy who calves 200 a year couldn't guess within 15 pounds of anyone of them. If people don't weigh them I have hard time believing what weights are.

    Replacements Heifers from these Angus cows

    Are you talking pen of 3 heifers or bulls because Trifecta only has 2 registered bull calves and 10 heifer calves? Lauren Lindeland has 5 ET heifers all born the same day and another one born couple weeks later according to ASA website. Or maybe they don't have to be registered to show in that...

    Opinions on Simmental bulls for 2013

    I'm just think off top of my head but just seen new pic of Redestined on Select Sires beef site. I was impressed enough to order 5. He is 3/4 but maybe worth a look.
