kappes picked up a new bull from wheatland in Canada ,one of the nicest haired simmi bulls I have ever seen,,also really stout with a soft easy feeding look

I may be wrong,,,but this whole thread started because of the concern of youth not being able to show heifers out of half blood bulls.  IMO they should not be able too.  as the article says,these cattle are not able to be bred up to purebred status ,therefore being in a different herdbook  also...

Most disappointing ,,believe in me. X firewater pb char donor,,,nice calves just rattails ,bad luck I guess,,,,,,worst mating,,win mans lanza   X  theil char donor,,,huge calves at birth with below avg performance after

I would recommend that you as breeders of composites come to the fall board meetings,,I think the AICA is missing a real opportunity with these composite cattle,,they have great merritt in the industry,,,but as a association we shun them,,don't offer open shows,and make it difficult for breeders...

Only problem with papering composite bulls is,,,as breeders we still need to make sure kids know,Jr nationals rules say ,composite females must be out of PUREBRED cows or bulls,,,,and we need to make sure we are not selling half bloods that are out of two composites,and let people think they can...

a show for non traditional marked purebreds will never fly in the states,,,it was like pulling teeth to get it passed for light cream Q cattle to show,,,,we tried to get a open composite show,,,we couldn't even get that out of our committee

I think allot of the blame with these kids buying composites and wanting to paper calves lies with us as breeders not informing our customers of how it works ,I agree that the composite bulls should be DNA tested if the want in the half blood herd book,,and the females prob should too,  you...

goes to show you cant depend on numbers ,,to many are manipulated

bluegrass would be ok here,,,and would give you a good maternal female if you luck out and get a heifer, should add some pelvis too

would not recommend Lanza ,,had some extremely big calves out of him this fall ,,I think the best calvin ease bull out the is wr wrangler,,genex carries him

Have a 02 sooner,,love it,,been a great trailer ,it gets used on ranch and goes to shows,,,been well over 300k,,and still pulls great

read the whole post,,,4 for5 LASTNIGHT,,,,,,,,2 hits so far tonight

Have had several et calves come 14 to 20 days late this year,gonna make it hard to market those way overdue bull calves that weighed 120,, its crazy cuz the full subs that calves on time weighed mid 90 range

I knew I would catch greif for my statement  but I still  believe a really good female that is stout and sound,should be able to show both ways as a prospect I agree market heifers need to be stout  but the shouldn't look like steers ,they are still females 

sorry for the bad spelling ,,my phone has its own idea of what I type

First off I am gonna say this should happen.  If they use the right type.  Sound big muddled females should be winning both shows,  being a jackpot this time of year I am guessing they are judging them as prospects ,  my opinion but its not the huge hopped freak steers that are winning,  it the...

Dam is purebred, so that takes the smoke question out.  Just seemed odd to me the all of them were rats,,and none of the monopoly were,,,I will say if they had hair they could have been great ones.  Stout good made calves

Will post pics when I get to place that raises et calves,,,,,but honestly all are rats,,,,,don't believe me,,,,come buy em,,,sight unseen

Anybody else had any of these,,,flushed our best clubby char cow and got six rattails  all the monopoly look great out of her though

Wouldn't suggest firewater on heifers,,,he can be used but with caution ,,for a char bluegrass is a surebet ,,but redsmoke will give you mire of a showring presence if you don't mind the chance of getting a red one
