Is it possible to stack the Baldy gene in simmental cattle? I have a nice baldy heifer I want to breed. Thinking of using a baldy bull (High Life) from select sires. I’ve heard that it doesn’t work and you can get a all black calf? Thanks

What about optimizers milk number? Anyone with any experience with how optimizers heifers milk?

I’m looking into using a Baldy simangus/simmental bull on black angus cows. Trying to find the best one for WW and retaining heifers. Some that I’ve found have really low milk numbers. With retaining heifers I don’t want cows that do not milk well. Thanks for any help!

Is it normal to see some discharge after putting the cidr in?

Thank you

Anyone have pictures or information on his calves?

Also I’m using select sires. So it has to be one of their bulls.
