I will when I decide if she is worth the money to register. Her udder quality just got me to wondering what people know of udder/teat quality of her two potential sires.

We have a heifer that could be sired by either bull - her type looks like a Columbus to me, but she is starting to set an udder down now and teat shape/size/placement looks poor. So wondering what people can tell me about Columbus in these regards and also wondering what Hector is doing as well...

I remember when Eionmor was showing both of the bulls, and I actually preferred Ultra though in most shows he placed behind Gus becasue Gus was the thicker bull. But by my memory Ultra was better balanced, had better testicles, better legs and moved more cleanly. I didn't like Gus at all. When...

Anyone have much experience with his calves/daughters? He looks like he lacks depth of rib in the pictures.

Thanks I think that is it then - flip what I wrote around - 102 - and it could be read as COl. The 2 did look a bit funny, and I didn't clue in. Thanks for the heads up form the Heritage Shorthorn people.

Does anyone have any Columbus semen and if so what is the code on the cane top? I have some vials and they are extremely hard to read so was hoping the cane top might provide a clue.

Anyone have a picture of the Diamond Legs 21 bull?

Found a pic, but hard to get a true idea - they did the old pic of the hips to make him look taller.

Anyone have a picture of the bull or any comments? Thanks.

On another note - the semen from the older Heritage bulls sold really well the other day in Horseshoe Creeks Frozen in time sale. Semen is near bottom of first page and there is more on the second. https://edjeauctions.com/auction.php?aucid=141

Yes exactly - doesn't mean that it wasn't done, just that the time wasn't taken to hand add all this stuff into computer systems and/or transferred over as new computer systems were used. Even with the recent Canadian move to Digital Beef there were animals left off if they weren't deemed...

Considering that he only has three offspring born in the 2000's and the rest in the early 1980's (one in 1989) would most of his offspring have not been born be prior to any type EPD system? In those days birth weight sometimes got recorded on papers and occasionally weaning weight but that...

I guess it is a chicken and egg thing. Durham Shorthorns were used to create the Maine Anjou breed. Do they know if the the Durhams brought the Myo into the Maines, or if it existed in the French breed that was crossed with the Durhams? This statement from a scientific paper would seem to answer...

Yes the rumours say that the pedigree is wrong, but I haven't read or heard someone say so definitively. Rumours are sometimes true and other times people just spouting off that they heard from a guy who talked to a guy.

Actually the E226X MYO mutation in Western Canadian pedigrees is believed to originate with a cow that by pedigree would qualify as Native. Pedigree link below. https://csa.digitalbeef.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=_animal&file=_animal&search_value=&animal_registration=F624382&member_id=

So are there any Heritage beef lines left, or do all the current live Heritage cattle derive from Haumont breeding? I don't think there would be any left here in Canada as I am fairly sure that every Shorthorn in the closed book has multiple crosses of Irish cattle. I have checked a few herds...

Bull is halter broke and quiet and about 20 months old. Need to move him in the next week or ten days. If anyone is moving through those areas with some room or knows someone who trucks in those areas please let me know. Thanks.

When looking through sale catalogues and watching videos these cattle appeal to me more than the other show type genetics. They seem to have a bit more depth of body and cowiness while still having eye appeal. They have been around a few years so there should be a bunch of daughters around. How...

Catalogue is up https://aegertermarketing.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Lauer-Dispersal.pdf

Dan have you seen any double carriers of e266x? I have a three potentials (ET calves), but I think 2 of 3 are likely single carriers as they are normal looking, but just show more muscle and bone - also very large BW versus the third calf who looks like the other non carrier calves I have. I did...
