Milk Man Calving Trouble

[Steer4Caddy]

Has anyone heard of problems with Milk Man calves being to big?  Heard of some problems in Texas.

Yes Milk Man will make u keep an eye on your cows.  You wont find a bull that will put a rear qaurter in them like milkman.  there super stout, real soft made and big boned.  Without a doubt a must use bull.  Most cattleman get nervous when they got there good ones calving anyways, so why not keep a closer eye on them and use milk man, and let him pay you back when the calves outa him are way more marketable.

They can be real big.  Had a friend with a 135 lb calf 1 day early.  They also can get too much frame and shoulder for me also.  I have seen some real good ones, but I have seen some very average ones also.

He is one to watch. We had 5 MM calves this year they ranged from 75 to 115 lbs. I dont think he adds frame. Could be a bit better in the shoulder, but you cant ask for better natural thickness and bone. Here are a few pics of our MM calves. We did get 2 black steers out of him and some Maine x Angus cows.
