I had 3 born Sunday 8-26-12 all out of Meyer 734 x Angus cows. One Heifer and two Bulls. As newborns they all seem to be a little leggy and straight fronted. Is this an area of concern?

Thanks for the feedback. We bred to him to down size and maybe get a little color. We bred our 5 framiest cows to him. One is a Witch Dr. x Meyer, one is a Rocky Balboa x Meyer, one is a Dr. Who x Meyer, one is a purebred Angus and the other is a Hardcore daughter.

Just checking to see if there are any calves out there yet. I bred some cows to him for Sept. calves and was curious as to what to expect.

By "hard topped" do you mean she seems rigid and not very flexable in her spine? Otherwise, I don't really follow what you are asking. We have a few so if I can understand the question better I may be able to offer an opinion.

Are there any calves out there yet? I have some cows bred to him for Fall calves and was just wondering if there are any early reports.

He is a Full Throttle out of a Maine Angus cow. Of late there have been some cows singled out for being great cows and they were by Jack Frost. He was stout, big ribbed and pretty sound. Like his sire he had a tendency to throw some pretty big calves at times. Since my original post I looked on...

On the Midwest Genetics on-line semen sale 2 straws of Jack Frost semen sold for $90.00/ straw. Both SEK and Top Sires have it listed for $20.00. I have some in my tank. Just wondering what's up with that?

Biggest disappointment we had this year was Boardwalk on a FF cow. I liked the look of Boardwalk and the cow has plenty of power. She just needed to be softened up a bit. Knowing that a lot of people are having success with Monoply on FF cows and that Boardwalk is a Monopoly son I decided to...

She's had several good calves now going on 11 years old but this one is by far the best. I'll get a picture Saturday and post. That's not the only bonus check I need to send you. Just don't ever figure my bill!

Nice calf Jackie and Josh! I have a Fall born Amen heifer out of a Heat Seeker cow I bought from Jim that is probably the best calf I have ever had. Definitely the best calf the cow has ever raised. Really good structured and sound with a monster hip and huge stifle. She has a lot of rib and is...

Thank to everyone for their comments. You have all been very helpful. Looks like I will be breeding all 10 heifers to FA for replacement heifer production. Thanks Again!

I ran across some sexed semen on FA. I am developing a set of Club Calf heifers to breed this fall (all clean). I am 70% sure I want to breed them Angus the first time. My logic is that I am writing off getting any marketable steers in this first calf crop and would like to be in the position to...

Changed the subject to more accurately reflect what I am looking for.

There are 10 heifers. 3 are WMW x Meyer734/ Angus. 5 are out of Hardcore x Meyer daughters or graddaughters. 2 are Amen x Heatseeker. I have written off producing any steers in this first mating but would like to be able to retain any good heifers for future cows. The 5 Hardcores have about as...

I am developing a set of crossbred (clubby) heifers to retain in the herd. Of the following sires please rank them in order that you would use or recommendations are welcomed. 1. Doc 2. Grizz 3. OCC Homer 4. OCC Missing Link 5. BC Lookout

Come on people, surely I am not the only guy out here that bred a cow to him.

Have one heifer that was born in Sept. that I plan to keep. She is out of an old Heat Seeker cow. Athletic would be a good general description of her. She is very stylish and sound as a cat. Really wide and square at her hips with plenty of rib. If I could change her I would make her a little...

Have some Meyer 734 x Bando 155 daughters. I bred all of them to Thriller this go round for show heifer production. Good or bad what do you guys think of this mating?

I bred two cows to him last Fall. One of them caught and had a Sept. heifer. The cow is an old Heat Seeker daughter. The heifer calf is really nice. Super sound and thick with hair to burn. I will rough clip calves sometime in Feb. and will try to post a picture.
