    Simmental bull for heifer

    Several go with Ebony's Grandmaster on their Dream On's. Alot depends on what traits you are looking for.

    anybody feed this? corn gluten

    We fed it straight and mixed with soybean hulls until the mill we got it from closed. The mill we go to now doesn't have it, so we feed soybean hulls and distiller grain.

    Frame scores - how small is too small?

    I'll go with a 5.5 to a 6.5 frame. I like them to be a 6 - 6.5 mostly. I don't want a midget and I don't want a tower neither!

    A Hopeful Future Sire, A (LUCKY DICE x STAR POWER) Grandson

    Another one of my Simmy bulls I've got to get ready to wean. If he follows suit to the previous calves from this dam he should really put on some style and power. Keeping my fingers crossed.

    My newest calf addition

    Sounds like a nice calf firesweepranch, I'll wish you luck on the 6 to go. Here's a bad pic of my bull calf. He's ready to start weaning, he really thinks he can push our 5 year old Dream On son around, lol. Got to get him to the weaning pen before he hurts himself.

    Super Bowl

    I dislike them both, but with it being the Super Bowl I'll take a guess. I'm thinking the giants have played the best during the season, but I'm figuring the pats will surprise in the repeat. I think Brady will want it more than Manning.

    calving ease bulls

    Long's Shear Pleasure is a Reg. 3/4 Sim that should click well with Angus & Hereford pedigree's. He's got the chrome face and the homozygous black and poll gene. Also has a good CE, BW, and milk score.

    FITZ POL BOXCAR S208

    Yeah, leanbeef is correct. I've seen some pretty nice sons in the Iowa Beef Expo Catalogs. The white color doesn't bother me, as long as it's on the underline or the head. Don't care much for white on legs and feet, especially on the back two. Myself haven't ever had much of a problem with Lucky...

    Twin Bull Calves

    Leanbeef, that is pretty much what I'm doing, except I'm hand feeding them usually just once daily though. As far as the weaning it's just that she is making more milk than usual compared to when she has only 1 calf a year. Therefore, I was a bit worried about her bag and her stress if I weaned...

    Twin Bull Calves

    The twin brothers are six months old now, was wondering if I should wean 1 first and wait a while longer and wean the 2nd or just wean them both together. The Dam has held up good and is milking pretty good, so I was thinking gradually weaning them separate, 1 now another a bit later. Calves...

    A Simmental Decision

    Thanks for all the suggestions, advice, and your time. I'm gonna think it over and do some number punching and make a decision soon. Still leaning towards Bettis but I'm gonna give the rest a strong look.

    A Simmental Decision

    I'm leaning to Bettis as well. Although I like Bottomline's milk and growth numbers, but I know he is a younger less proven option. I like that Bettis has a larger frame than Bottomline and has the sexed semen available. Heifer is a bit too moderate. Manifest looks nice but has a lower calving...

    A Simmental Decision

    Got a Reg. Black Simmental Heifer that I'm thinking of putting in a sale this fall. I was told she would do better if I got her AI bred. The AI tech that will be doing the aiing works for Accelerated Genetics. Therefore, I thought I would get the semen through them. Heifer is a Dream On grand...

    breeding sugestions

    I'm thinking BS Mr Corrector 9111J or Ruby NFF Excalibur002X.

    Breeding suggestion

    My MT daughter has done great, no calving problems and all the matings have been purebred simmental. She has a nice frame nothing small about it. Other than that she fits the description already posted of MT calves perfect. I would also consider Blazin Hot, he should stretch her calves out some...

    3/4 blood Simmental bulls

    I liked the 3/4 bull I had CLCC Big Ben, he is a Star Power x DMN Daisy Mae son. The few calves I had from him are really coming on. The weaning weights are nice and he sure did add the hair. If I had him now I wouldn't have sold him, but I can't have too many bulls out here. I'm really watching...

    BEST RED SIMMENTAL BULL ON THE PLANET

    Somebody that raises a bull that looks as darn good as this Mack bull should be dang proud of him, with all the hard work and cost I'm sure it took to make such a nice product. But declaring him the best red simmental bull on the planet might be a choice of the wrong words to use. 1st because...

    Anyone on here with knowledge of ABS red simmental bull RED IRON?

    KS Sundance Kid S28 and CCR Red Line 5338U might also work well in that situation.

    Meyer Daughter , What to flush too ?

    For a pretty nice baldy I'll 2nd the vote for PRS Blazin' Hot. For a solid I'll go with SS Ebonys Premium Blend.
