Well I think I am partially bald after trying to decide what to breed this gal too. Shes is out of a PHAF Irish Whiskey son, thats a full brother to BFW Whiskey For My Men. Her dam is a 1/2 Sim, 1/4 Angus, and 1/4 Maine. What do you think?



<---- She had an 81 pound Chill Factor bull calf.

She looks like she could have some frame to her and if she is A little bigger framed i would use Jimmy the Greek for a steer prospect.
And any thing OCC for a replacement female.

Oh, I know I've never seen this heifer in person...but believe me, she isn't big framed.  I think Bleedin Purple would be awesome on her, but since that semen is hard to find, I'd go with Calberta Black Impact or Calberta Hustler (Or Hoosier Hot Shot...hustler son).

She is deffinatly not big framed, she has never been knocked for being small framed, nor has anyone specificly mentioned that she's small framed, but I would like to see her slightly bigger. She is only 3/8's registered maine. I wouldn't mind putting shorty, maine, or x-bred in her, but angus is gona take some convincing ;D

I may be wrong about her frame but if she has enough guts and could handle more frame i think Hustler would be an excellent choice as well.
The heifer in my avatar is a Paddy O'Malley x Calberta Hustler who i have high hopes for.

THERE ARE A COUPLE OF SHORTYS, PROUD JAZZ, AND WORDS CASPER-WHO THREW BLUES,IS AN EASY CALVER, AND SIRED BY JAKES PRIDE, DMCC BODYBUILDER SIRED BY OCC ANCHOR AND OUT OF THE PRIDETTE DONER IS ONE OF THE BEST UNKNOWN CALVING EASE TANKMAKERS I KNOW OF (OTHER THAN HIS SON TLM BOUNCER) IF YOU WANNA SEE AN ABSOLUTE  SOW, GO TO DIAMONDM CATTLE CO. ON SHOWSTEERS AND LOOK UNDER DONERS, A TYPICAL DAUGHTER (FROM A STOUT COW) IS SHOWN, IVE SEEN HER IN PERSON, JUST A GROUND DRAGGER.

The calf is that Chill Factor in his avatar...cocky little dude, it will be cool to see what he looks like when he's a little older.

I'd say you hit a homer with chill factor, why not swing again? Dont think you could go wrong on that heifer with any bull really. I would definitely say frame is not an issue. How is she on the move? If she were mine I might try something with a Who influence in it. But like I said dont think you could go wrong on her any way. Looks Good!!!  (thumbsup)

TM Gus, Sin City, Sinister, Vegas might all get you a cool blue roan. 
I like the Gus idea, and I think I'd rather breed her to Vegas then Sin City even if he is a TH. How much is $ Vegas?

I have thought about it. I would really like to flush her this summer instead of re-breeding her since she is calving later then I would like. I could be wrong but I think the chill factor heifers out of her could be worth a few bucks down the road.

I maybe jumping the gun, but is her Chill Factor bull calf for sell by chance?
Well we could defiantly work something out. We have thought about keeping him to promote, just sell a partnership, or just sell him outright to do as you please. Send me a Pm if interested.

heatwave or milkman
I have 3 units of the original heatwave, I think I would much rather use it in a flush, and not risk a 120lb bull calf outta her just yet.

Thank you all for the comments and opinions! Any other opinions lets hear em!
