    Irish Whiskey Sons

    We used three Irish Whiskey influenced bbulls last year.  Were hoping for heifers and got a ton of bull calves......  we got four rumor mill bull calves.    Like them all enough to use him again.  All four have "the look"  one i have shared a couple pics of him as a day old calf and was told...

    Scottish bull has testicles removed so he’s still making calves… 15 months after

    Even with a broken leg couldn't they probe him and collect?.... Why not clone if he is worth that much?

    Steer show classifications...is it time to change?

    Not having to prove it is the breed it is competing as takes away the reason for the breed divisions.

    We are changing our herd away from Shorthorn

    A patient raises Wagu. Or however it is spelled.  They have done some research or testing and found that marbling at least in Wagu is linked to nutrition of the calf in the first 60-90 days......  Something like that.    That goes with a long time red angus breeder that told a mutual friend...

    Steer show classifications...is it time to change?

    ^^^^^. What he said.    Not in the show ring with my kids yet.....  Will probably never be at the level we are trying to get into a champions drive at Iowa State fair wi a steer, maybe with a heifer if we are lucky, but I think it ought to be at least 50% the breed it says it is.....  Either...

    We are changing our herd away from Shorthorn

    I Agree that the black hide fetish is insane.  I bought some black baldy pairs with what appeared to be Hereford sired calves at side.  Just having some white on the legs/neck got them sorted out of the rest of our calves and sold at a 20-30 cent discount.  To the same buyer that bought the...

    To induce or not to induce.....

    She is for sure the AI date...  Her bag is not Bulging, but milk has come in....  Her 3/4 sister, bred to rumor mill looks like she will go early....  go figure.

    To induce or not to induce.....

    Sim/Lim X heifer  Aied to Rumor mill.    NO way she is not the AI date, she was not with Bull for 50+ days after AI service.....  Relatively large framed heifer, due 2-6 using 283 days so realistically probably a few days after that.  Palped the calf and it doesn't feel Huge.  If I was...
