Full Blood Maine Weekly Update

[doc-sun]

frostback forwarded me a link to browarny's facebook page.

they are archiving all of his old photos from slides/film to maximum digital resolution. 

all of their photo's are available for a nominal fee for personal use.  if used for advertising, a larger fee is involved.

here's three old fullbloods.  the one of vainqueur is a second picture from the one they used to post as his near leg/foot is placed awkwardly.

i love the lighting and shadows on the danigo and capone pictures.

Danigo looks just like I remember him at Houston after this picture was made at western breeders but imagine him thicker and more mature. Sure am glad I still have dads semen from when we owned him.

Any pics of the 4 or 5 calves she has had?

Really like Manitou's Ivryleague bull. Has anyone used him or bought semen.

Gary really likes the calves he has had by him. I don't think he has collected him but will ask.

 

[doc-sun]

your partner should be able to tell you what two of them looked like (her second and third calves). one by Tundra, one by a Siberia son.

first calf just went commercial, by a black heifer bull. the Covino x Caqui one was junk, just like his sire, coarse and rugged...oh, yeah, that makes three he should be able to prove up on seeing...sold as commercial.

this years was out of an Angus bull thanks to some "cowboys".

She is a coca cola cow and I have never seen calves out of a Fullblood one. I am trying to determine if I want to put in the embryos I have by coke. I am concerned how course they will be if I got a heifer.

with Coca Cola being a maternal bull, he tends to throw to the cow.  they tend to be smooth, potential to be double muscled on bulls like Capone and Dabla...I would lean to matings with "pretty" animal bloodlines line Cunia, Epinal, Dada maybe even Danigo and Iabon...bulls like Caqui, Dalton, Covino, Buret...you might not get what you wanted.  would like cross well with something Kuda or going back to the Cunia x 206A mating.

be cautious on the udders too. this cows bag is ok...mostly because of her dam...I have seen some that are...eh.  put them in, I'd be interested to see how they turn out.  another guy to talk to is Dave Stout from South Dakota...he has some Coca Cola animals.  good luck. <beer>

I threw some coca cola semen in a couple cows just to experiment and the calves should be coming any day now.  I'll post some pictures for you when the time comes if you're interested

lot 364 is a darco sired bull by doc-sun

This is why I thought Darco should have been exploited more. Think this guy could be a part of a good thing. Really like his over all dimension and how he moves so freely. He really absorbs the ground as he travels. I like him 100 times more then those Cunia's and I would bet the bank that he has fewer genetic issues. Thanks Knabe and congrats Doc-Sun for breeding such an interesting Fullblood.

bingo. i love the flex in his hock and how free it moves, even with the bone he has.

This was my only concern when I saw his picture as a calf but the the video has taken all that doubt away. I really think he is an important bull.

Another thing that I'm impressed with is how he resembles his sire.

 

[doc-sun]

We have decided to sell 1/2 interest in darc storm in the Connors bull test sale this week

 

[doc-sun]

FYI darco is the easiest calving highest milk most maternal Fullblood Maine bull in the breed. We had the semen knew this and created him from the only egg in the flush. He was born on the day the tornado hit my house and therefore we didn't make it to ft worth with Yukon and slash. I think he is a bull of destiny.
