    Using both sexed and conventional semen on a flush ?

    Planning a flush to Grandmaster and I have both sexed and conventional semen. Would like to have heifers out of this mating  but I know the sexed semen doesn`t always work well when used on a flush. Would I be stacking the deck in my favor by using a straw of each on both breedings or would I...

    Purple the Bookie

    He makes clubby steer momma type heifers or steers. Something to keep in mind is that I believe he is a Th and Pha carrier so use him on cows you know are free of both.

    Grandmaster sexed semen ?

    Just wondering if anyone has used the Grandmaster sexed semen and how their conception rate was with it ? I think some bulls may tend to work better than others with sexed semen but I haven`t heard one way or the other about Grandmaster. He is a pretty popular bull surely someone on here has...

    Appendix

    They are really the same thing just Shorthorn Plus relpaced Appendix as the newer more modern term a few years back. They just have to be 50 % Shorthorn to be registered as Shorthorn Plus and it doesn`t matter if the Shorthorn blood comes from the dam or the sire they would just have to be...

    The Maine Man

    What have the birth weights been on The Maine Man calves and do they come fairly easy ? Would he be ok for a second calf on a half Angus cow ? Are the steers better than the heifers ? Any pictures of his calves would be great . Thanks

    Heatwave 5 Market heifer

    If you have a good market for steers in your area I would let her have the calf then flush her. Even though she may not milk like the Simmental cows you are used to I would bet that she would throw some good steers that would do good on a recip cow. It really just depends on what you can sell in...

    What Maine bull would you use on this cow ?

    I thought about Hard Whiskey also but he doesn`t seem to be available yet at least not through ABS I don`t know if he`s producing yet or just not enough to send to the distributors. From the looks of him he will be one to watch.

    What Maine bull would you use on this cow ?

    I`m trying to decide what Maine bull to use on this cow next. She is a New Design 878 out of a Hustler X Draft Pick cow and she is registered as a Maintainer. I really want to use a Th. and Pha. free bull and hope for another heifer. The bulls I`m considering  now are I-80, The Maine Man and...

    Tires

    If you don`t need a real aggressive tread pattern then it`s pretty hard to beat a Michelin tire for getting a lot of miles out of a set of tires.

    Point Taken Bull

    I noticed on the Chi. Assoc. website that he is restricted from registrations because they don`t have Dna. on him. I hope they get that straightened out soon because I would use him again but not if the calves can`t be registered. We had a really nice heifer out of him 2 years ago. He will throw...

    Monopoly or One and only for second calf ?

    Would Walks Alone be a better choice for the Chi. 2nd calvers and One and only be better for a couple of Simmi. 2nd calvers ? Surely One and only would help clean up the floppy fronts on the Simmi`s.
