    Late to the party. Rambling Fever is a great bull. Ever see Dan May's other bull, Jacee's Walker?  By BC Marathon.  I have a coming 2 year old heifer due in about a month I bought directly from Dan May by Walker out of a Eblazon x Beefmaker cow.  I lover her.

    Jesse James & I80 bulls

    Last year I had a Jesse James heifer out of my big, winning Heat Wave x Meyer cow (She turned out phenomenal btw).  She was 75# at birth and grew, grew, grew.  I did assist, but then her mother was 1 month off the show circuit and fat.  Secondly, unless they just pop them out, when I busy with...

    I Da Man - Hero or Hype?

    Should I pull the trigger and breed her to Heat Wave/Clone?  Only after I see what she does with this calf, a Jesse James due in May.  That would still give me a calf that would be high enough % Chi to be eligible...and if I don't care about that should I just do MAB?

    I Da Man - Hero or Hype?

    I have it on very good advice that I should breed my wide based Heat Wave x Meyer cow to I Da Man.  I know about all of his sisters...even saw a younger one at Fort Worth.  Can't deny what they've done.  And Daddy's the bomb. However, when asked about my PB Angus cow, larger framed, great...

    Breeding Options

    In another thread, we were talking about a man who had a nice PB cow that lacked a few traits he would like so he was breeding her clubby.  I respect the PB thing.  I grew up raising PB Simmental.  Not SimAngus or Low % Simmental.  Heifers had to be 3/4 and bulls PB.  With my Angus heifer, I...

    Mtnman, with all due respect I don't follow your reasoning.  You said yourself that her best calf was a PB Hereford.  It was a steer and so now you want to raise terminal cattle out of her.  Personally, I would be breeding her to a PB Hereford that has a lot of show to it and breed for a show...

    Flush Opinions

    I many not be very popular after this.  And I apologize in advance.  Why are you feeding her and thinking of flushing her based on your description of her?  Is there an emotional attachment?  What's the parable about sowing seeds?

    Breeding Options

    My profile pic is a Jesse James heifer out of a Heat Wave x Meyer cow.  Best calf I've ever raised.  And I might find that I breed this Angus right back to Jesse James if I like what I get.  I was disappointed that he wasn't higher % Chi (questions on the dam) but found out that his dam is by a...

    Thank you "chambero".  There is one Angus Bull I really, really like.  Vin-Mar O'Reilly Factor.  I think it would be hard to market an good Angus in this area with breeders to the North, South and West of me that would make it difficult for me to sell...well, you know.  I currently have one of...

    I have an Reg. Angus first calf heifer due in May to Jesse James.  She's a Walker (Marathon x Northern Improvement) out of an Emblazon cow.  She's a 7+ frame score based on both the Angus Association and Steer Planet's frame score chart.  She's too straight for some but I like her lines.  I'll...

    Monopoly Money

    So what you're saying, DLD is that he probably wouldn't throw too big a calf out of my angus heifer?  She was 54" at 18 months.  According to the table that you used and the one from the Angus Association, 53.4 is a 7 and 55.3 is an 8.  What i'd like to know is did he add any thickness to his...

    This may be a stupid question, but you have a pretty nice looked PB cow there.  And you said that you raised a nice PB Hereford calf.  Why wouldn't you flush her to a proven PB Hereford?  I'm not familiar with the breed but like bulls like CRR About Time 743, UPS TCC Nitro 1ET or STAR TCF Shock...

    Monopoly Money

    I don't want to end up with a frame score 5.5 bull, steer or heifer, though.  Think Daddy of Em All is too big fronted.  One option I had thought of was a Heat Wave Clone.  Worry about calving issues since she isn't a wider based heifer.  Or I use I Da Man....sorry got off topic.

    QUESTION

    I just started.  The man behind the product comes from a family business that has manufactured liquid feed from Texas to South Dakota.  I've only got the one heifer calf and she seems to like it.  She's doing well.  But I have no studies nor a control to tell you how it works or how good. ...

    Like someone else said, if I read it correctly, I like his body shape and style better than most of the Heat Wave and Monopoly sons out there.  I have a frame score 7 PB Angus heifer (due to calf to Jesse James this year).  She is deep, has the rib shape, a great top, turn to her hip and good...

    I Da Man

    Interesting to hear everyone's opinions.  I wouldn't think he'd be a real soggy bull, bred like he is.  Did he have depth?  And what about bone?  Structural correctness?  I have a large, big footed, big boned cow I want breed to him.  And yes, I'd love to be able to get sexed semen.  I would...

    Daddy Of Them All / THF & PHAF

    And he's registered 12.658% Chi meaning all his calves, even out of commercial or other breed cows, will meet the minimum of 6.25% Chi for Louisville, Fort Worth, Jr. Nationals etc...I'd like to see how he matured out, though.

    Flushing options??

    Thank you to Barry Farms for sharing that information on White Rooster Cattle Company.  That cow has produced some nice bulls.  I'm intrigued.  I'm looking at Lash Out.  A THF PHAF son of Heat Wave and out of the C17 cow?!
