No the calf will be a 50% Shorthorn X Angus Sired by Firestorm-Just enter his Registration number x Angus. You can enter hers if she is a registered Angus if not-just say Angus Female for her end. Word to the WISE-If you bred a heifer to Firestorm BE THERE WHEN SHE CALVES

Thank you! And yes- she’ll be in with a camera, I haven’t missed a calving yet. Only reason I considered it is because she was bred at almost 3 years, and has a good wide set of hips haha. Thanks again!

Have you used comptons how it’s done? My first reg. Shorthorn I’ve been considering sending to him, looking for insight on how he goes to heifers. True calving ease? He looks like a hunk, she’s a lighter frame so I’m just not sure.

Yes flushed a cow to him I have a few cattle with Compton so everything gets bred to him. My buddy in Illinois is using him on all his heifers. I think thats risky with any bull if they are Hi Bw genetics . If they are not hi BW hes working fine so far. A bunch of calves are hitting the ground out of various types of cattle. Ill post the newborn pic and what he looks like at about 3 weeks old He was 68 I think pounds his dam is a first calf heifer and only weighs about 1000 pounds Then there's another one 72 IBs at Cody Venebles he will be the red one. HIDs calves are NO BS heifer size so far and have tremendous performance. Hes gonna make cows-his mother won a bunch of big shows like Acksarban, American Royal etc THEN-cow calf at Jr Nationals with her first And shes raised and produced some VERY good females and males JMO

Nice calves! Know where I could order semen? Might as well breed my other back to him when she drops her firestorm calf.

OK Jim Compton has a shipper or you can get it from SEK GENETICS I think once you see some more of the calves he will prove a good investment. And hes been collected at whats probably one of the best studs in the US PM me if you want some. Need to know how many straws.We will get it to you .

Looking into getting my own ai tank so I can have it shipped straight to me, our ai gal is moving to Montana. Need to get my last couple firestorm straws out of her tanks. Better learn how to just do it myself too, hopefully a couple months and I'll order 4 or 5!
Much appreciated!!

Yes and there are several good ones out of first calf heifers and young cows. Nothing over 72 pounds so farOne was a couple months old at the national JR show with his dam who is a very moderate maybe 1100 plus pounds. Tho he was only 63 pounds at birth (I HAVE PICS) he is now a BEAST Thickest biggest topped calf at the whole show BACK THEN. Im hoping to get some recent pics Ill post them. Hes going to be close to 50% or more of his dams weight when he weans. Thats not to say HID or any bull is fool proof. But he does alot of good things

OK Shorthorn stuff I had to stop a video to get the 3+- month old HID Calf pictures at the Junior Nationals They dont do it at all.-SCROLL UP ABOVE TO APRIL- some more of him from a day old and 3 weeks. The second shows more what hes really like AND A GOOD RED BULL CALF ABOUT HIS AGE BACK THEN I really want to see him now hear hes really something. But look how stout that rascal is to be just baby. The stills are blurred and awkward-but hes got a top like a Euclid Rock Truck-and hes kept going that way. Hes going to sell as a bull. His 1100 pound (first calf heifer) MOTHER AINT NO SLOUCH NEITHER
