I use him on plain old angus cows. My sons last two 4-H steers were out of Mossy.

I tried him on all sorts of things and had no luck.  Calves looked good at first, but soon became wrecks.  I used him on some darn nice cows too.  Careful he's a carrier

I've used him on a half blood Fear This cow with great results. Look at my picture. That's a steerthat was GR CH at the IA summer Beef Expo a few yrs ago. They've all been pretty big but nothing out of this world. Like the previous post said expect them to be a week late. I kept a hfr and she had a Juneau unassisted and milked great. Died the next winter for absolutely no reason at all. Found her dead about two months before calving. Sh_t happens!

Mine seemed to look good at birth and look outstanding by fall. They have plenty of growth so they tend to finish before you really want them.
