[kfacres]

guess he isnt' worth using.. may as well cut the straws and dump them then

 

[KMJCC]

Talking to my COBA rep he was one of his biggest sellers last spring so should be seeing some in the spring around me.

Is there a dna homo polled test for Shorthorns now?

 

[vet tech]

Nobody around me used him that I know of. I thought he was very small footed

I know they sold a lot of units last spring.  I'll have one this March out of a pure bred limi that I and trying to frame down.

that is what I keep hearing.. sold all kinds of semen on him...  3nd most popular, or highest selling new bull of the year, or forever.. or something I forget.. Yet I haven't heard of any calves really.  Sure he's still a young bull.. but there should be a ton of calves by him out somewhere allover

a month or so ago there was a post where someone saw three of them. They said there wasn't much too them and they were shallow made. I haven't searched the site to see if I could find that.

I had  two heifers this spring; both pretty thick and grew well. When you look at the group of heifers, they stand out.

 

[Davis Shorthorns]

from what I have heard he sold a ton of semen up into places like Montana, Wyoming, etc...  and he sold a bunch back there this year.  I will be having one in march.

I AIed 2 clubby Shorthorn heifers with his semen, but I think one didn't take as she came down  with a bad case of pneumonia the day after the AI. but the other one took I have a feeling she's carrying twins. many people in the NW used him this year. mine is expected in May

Shouldn't his calves grade pretty good?

Shouldn't his calves grade pretty good?

Depends if they are implanted, or most likely, what the dam's genetics are.

i HAD 16 CALVES OUT OF HIM LAST SPRING AND REALLY LIKE THEM.  i HAD 2 OUT OF PUREBRED SHORTHORNS.  1 bull and 1 heifer the bull was solid red and born unassisted out of a red first calf heifer.  The heifer was 77 pounds at birth and out of a Byland Dazzler daughter that had a 92 pound Proud Jazz bull last year if that says anything?  I had 11 out of registered angus cows, 10 were solid black with one being dark blue with socks on the back end.  Birthweights were very controlled as one of the calves was out of a Fix It daughter that had 100+ pound calves out of multiple angus sires with low birth epd's.  I had 3 out of F1 Angus x Shorthorn 2 year olds.  All three calves were pretty blue roans born unassisted and averaged 68 pounds at birth, 2 steers and a heifer.  Sold both steers for club steers and averaged 2000 on them which is very good for my area and also for both being out of first calf heifers.  Needless to say I used him again

 

[linnettejane]

[aandtcattle]
