if you ment his breeding, i have a pedigree on him but im not familar with shorthorn genetics, but i can tell you he wasnt out of any AI bulls, he was a natural service calf. he might have fancy genetics somewhere in his background but i dont know

Truthfully I'm pretty impressed.  I'd make sure and loin him down when you showed him but he is actually pretty stout for a pb.

that's what I want... 

If you have a pedigree-- post the registration name and number of both parents-- unless your calf is registered-- then post his registration number.

nice calf that should be pretty competitive for your county show - should finish out pretty nicely - good luck

The white on him shows you have done your work. There isn't any yellowing from staining. Excellent job with his coat. I like his stance he seems wide base and nice top. Has a good rear for purebred Shorthorn. Goodluck with your calf.

He's a really nice steer for a pb, he's nice and stout with loads of thickness.  I can't quite tell from the picture, but I think I'd like to drop him down in the twist a bit.

Interesting pedigree-- first thing that catches my eye-- is wondering if this steer comes from the same cow line as JPJ-- without looking it up, I say yes-- b/c of the Poly Cumb. cow name, actually maybe a double shot if you click the topside of the pedigree as well-- (Cow bred to E>J>.)  Again this may be, and may not be.. I don't have time to research it, but if someone really cared-- then they could..  Maybe even a 3rd shot on the cow bred to Enticer-- again--- all Poly Cumberland cow name.

2nd thoughts- not much on the reg paper pedigree-- but click off of it, and tons shows up of the same ole same ole.. Enticer, Rodeo Drive, Eskimo Joe, and Red Cloud... All bulls very close up in good, highly promoted AI bulls of today...

Neat pedigree really... thanks for sharing.  Pretty loud on the color for my tastes-- but takes nothing away from true taste.

I like the muscling on the hindquarter in the first picture, good to see on a PB Shorthorn.

Imagine how good he will taste when his show career is over! ;)
