whats this costing you a ton? what are you feeding it to? what type of gains have you been getting ?

Used him on 10 heifers and cows, curious to see what others think of him! Obviously a very young unproven bull, but generations upon generations of highly proven sires!

They probably are lol but he made up 50% of their genetics, Ten X daughters are very prolific young cows, I would imagine you will see very similar things in discovery and all in. Both going back to great cowmakers in upward and in focus, thing of note discovery has a slightly higher milk epd...

Are you looking to retain replacements? where are you located? he has a relatively high milk epd, just knowing off hand i think its 34-36, which if your cowherd is in a rougher grazing area and is not supplemented you could end up with some harder doing cows, what are you looking for in a sire ?

saw the 44 farms sale back in feb, some nice elite quality heifers out of discovery, im sure there will be some offspring from him in a variety of sales both this fall and next spring, I went with deer valley all in over discovery for breeding some of my non upward influenced females, they are...

Draxxin works really well in my experience, however, the sooner you can treat the calf with it the better the chance of recovery and less likely chance of relapsing.

I would love for some input on a ration for ~550 lb steers, I have backgrounded steers for a long time, however always turning them out on grass, which i will continue to do so in a smaller capacity, the reason being, the registered cows must have the grass now, however, i have just completed a...

Mainly interested in the females he can offer, bull calves will probably be cut and freezer beefed out, unless there is just a stud in the contemporaries.

Thoughts on this bull and his progeny? Having second thoughts about my breeding strategy, and am considering using this bull on my Heifers and higher BW cows

Yip, these heifers are mid 5 to low 6 frame, so I think with heifer calves calving shouldn't be too difficult, they'll also be under a watchful eye in the calving lot. Everything I read about FP is positive, easy doing cows that produce and stay in the herd, the goal is to calve as many heifers...

Thinking about first servicing all my herd to sexed heifer FP semen, thoughts on this idea for building a herd? Also, thoughts on using him on heifers? +3 ced is slightly concerning, .8 BW eases my mind a touch.

Formost 450, best manual chute I've used. But if you're in the hydraulic market. Silencer is the only way to go. Best thing about for most is the services

I'd probably hang myself if I had to buy cattle from that auctioneer, so slow.

Agreed, milk fat is what I like to call it

I also thought they were weaned

Huh, that's strange, I thought you would have for sure given them a good amount of feed, they just look a little fat, fat in the feeder cattle world is bad, moderate to thin is preferred to reduce shrink, they are nice looking calves, and I'm sure you learned a wealth of knowledge

His tail is wayyyy too long for a tenth month old, I'd pass on that one,

266Z is straight on the back, I'm concerned that he should be taller than he is, is he a yearling ?

Did you really pour the feed to them ?

I'd check out 2Z in person, none of the others strike me as impressive, I think 2Z could be good, but it's difficult to say with that pic :/
