Breeding poll

[farmboy]

What works the best on Dr Who x Angus cows. She's big bones, hairy, really lose moving and sound. Really shaggy.

Its between HW5, Walks Alone, or Monopoly. i think it will be too much angus in the calf if I use Monopoly.

Less than 12 hours to decide.

Monopoly. Thats who are Dr. Who is getting bred too. She's half angus. I've seen to many good Monopoly's x Dr. Who or Monopoly x Who to not breed her to him. My second choice would be Walks Alone. Is she pretty thick and good muscled?

Not really. And apparently someone decided to wait till now to tell me she has a horn in her which will limit the size of a calf she can have  ???

Well then I might consider the Walks Alone route. I havent seen to many calves out of him. I kinda like the Monopolys a little better. But Walks Alone might add the muscle you're looking for. And she's already got the bone, hair, and soundness. If she wasnt sound I'd say Monopoly, but since she's good I guess I'd breed her to Walks Alone for that muscle factor.

Our ShorthornPlus cows handle the biggest crossbred calves with absolutely no problems. Our Angus recips do fine, but the Plus cows are where it's at.

Well, the guy who had Monopoly wouldn't come down from $250 so we stuck her with One and Only.

Oh man, thats pretty high for him right now from what I've heard. One and Only is one of two unproven bulls that I've ever thoguht about using. TH and PHA free HW son, with the look of a carrier. Definitely post pics of the calf when it comes. He'll be a rookie that I think's gonna make 'em good.
