What sort of birth weights have you had from Jake's Proud Jazz, high or low, I'm thinking about breeding him to my heifers.

 

[shortdawg]

Mine have been in the 80 lb range.

 

[OH Breeder]

1 = 58#s first calf heifer

 

[Show Heifer]

Between 70-85 pounds.  Out of gelv heifer, shorthorn heifer, angus cow, and angus heifer.
A neighbor had one that weighed 90 pounds out of a char and piedmontese cross cow. He tends to feed well, and she is a huge cow!

Nice calves, grow well, and are easy to sell!

70s to 80s some are lower and look like shit but they bloom good.

 

[Davis Shorthorns]

Had a friend that just had a 52lb heifer out of a shorthorn + and a 58lb bull out of a shorthorn.  (heifer is really nice.)

i have been really impressed with all of the  jpj  steer calves i have seen this year idk about birth wieghts but calves look fantastic

 

[DCC_Cattle]

I had two this year. The first one was a 95# bull calf that was a hard pull. The second was a 60# heifer calf. Both out of first calf heifers. Here is a pic of the heifer calf, she is a week and a half old.

 

[SHORTH]

HAD ONE OUT AF A 4 YEAR OLD XRAY VISION COW WEIGHED ABOUT 78LBS AND HIT HTE GROUND RUNNING
LOOKS LIKE HE IS GOING TO BE A NICE STEER AS WELL

I know will catch hell for this(some people love their 1800# cows) but I wish every Shorthorn cow in the world was bred to him for just one year. Increases fleshing ability,polled,low birth weight, mostly red, downsizes, every thing that the breed needs. I guess he wouldn't good for the artificial performance figure (WDA) and he probably woudn't produce the 1800# cow though.

We had 3 heifers bred to him this year.  All of them had solid red, nice calves that were up and running in no time.  We did have a hard pull on the first  bull calf although he weighed only 82#.  I just don't think the heifer dilated very well.  The other bull and the heifer calf were born unassisted.  The heifer weighed 75# and is the most active calf we have.  I don't know what the second bull calf weighed as I sold the heifer as a bred to my neighbor.  She said the birth went well though and was very pleased with the calf.  I have a few straws for use on heifers this year as well.

Really nice heifer DCC!
