    Mercedes Benz Heifer Calves Pictures Included

    Wanted to share some pictures of the kind of quality Mercedes Benz is throwing. His calves have come easy as far as calving, and we now after calving out over 50 ourselves would recomend him as a calving ease sire. We feel his calves have a real cool look, square hips, good bone and that Killer...

    Maine Sires

    Telos, do your hardcore's milk??? When I think of building a herd milking ability rises to the top. I have a few hardcore's and honestly they about starve their calves. Don't get me wrong, good look and powerful would be traits I would describe them with, just not maternal. As far as Benz, I'm...

    I would have to strongly disagree with rtm. We have had 8 Grizzly calves to date. all have ranged from 72 to 80 lbs. we have not touched a single calf. 2 were out of mature cows the rest are out of first calf heifers. All of our Grizzly calves have a good square hip, adequate bone, blaze or...

    Missouri AGR Heifer Results

    We appreciate the kind comments about our Maintainer heifer, and feel she was definetly deserving of being in the top 5, however, lets be careful not to take away from the KIDS who owned the ones that did win. I am sure they are just like Mason, working hours in the barn trying to get better and...

    hey everybody, I am looking for new and exciting sires

    Jeferin, I appreciate your confidence in Benz. We have around 400 comm angus cows that we used Benz on alot in hopes of the same cross you were considering. As far as birth weights, I believe that no one can tell you for sure what a bull will do. They are kinda like kids, even though you know...

    hey everybody, I am looking for new and exciting sires

    Zach, I to agree with JSchroeder. I too do not wish to solidify, agree, or even remotely agree with your statements. I am half the owner of the bull, and feel he should stand in the top % of the bulls of Denver 09. Benz has way too much good to offer the cattle industry as a whole, not to be...

    hey everybody, I am looking for new and exciting sires

    Zach, Have you ever seen Mercedes in person? Yes, I agree the video was very hard to see him. Too many shadows and poor representation of who he truly was. All that stopped and visited with us at Denver stated that he was the most structurally complete bull in the displays. I also feel you must...

    hey everybody, I am looking for new and exciting sires

    we bred 40 sim X Angus to our new bull Mercedes Benz. We bought him primarly for this maiting. We feel he will moderate these cows, add some style  and add power. His flush mate was the futurity champion at Jr. Nationals and the only other female out of the flush was champion calf in denver...
