Only pb cattle went toward the sale avg. embryos went high and stayed high. Primo embryos avg over or around $1500 each. Didn't matter what cow they were from. Very few embryos went under $800.
Had a good report from my dad on IGWT.
Peach Bull calf on an unstoppable cow and a smoke heifer out of an angus/Parker cow.
Both came under 75lb and pretty hairy. We'll see how they develop.
Sorry no pics yet.
It has been announced that "the hill" will be no more. Over 1,000 head wil sell on feb 4th along with all embryos and semen. Gonna be a sad day in the angus world.
Mab was a great bull. Few bulls can produce the power steers and true breeding females.
This is a mab x encore/734/6807 at Davis farms in Kingston, Ohio
If we can make more heifers like this, it doesn't matter what semen cost. I'm buying it.
I agree on the mab grandson part but most every clubby that's is hot gets line bred at some point.
This bull isn't bred to be the next great steer maker. Truly he was bred to be a heifer and that's what I feel he is built for, to make Maine-Anjou influence cattle with a little more cow punch...
Gonna be hard to get ahold of from a dist. He has stopped collecting. He's being sent to run with cows to clean his pipes out. From what I understand, the bull has never ran with cows.

I know it's a ways from where y'all are located but this is by far the cheapest I've found and its something I can build or have minimal help with.
I quoted a 30' x 60' x 12'

We use multi min 90 at birth and again at 30 days. We've not had any problems with scours or any real sickness in 2 years with baby calves.
I've given bo-se for years to baby's but I think multi min is way better.
Same RT calf today. We have another due in march so by then I'll have a better idea on how he's going to work on a little different type if cow. So far I'm really happy.
Yea, he's really beginning to fill out and that hair is awesome. We moved him into a open shed pen so he should be ready to get another pic in a day or so.
Had our first RT calf came out a bull. Cow is a pb Maine by tnat Parker
280 days 79 lb bw. Really pleased with the hair, bone and especially vigor being clubby bred.
