    Clones

    I heard this on the radio a long time ago and thought it was interesting. It's about a very gentle Brahman bull named Chance and his clone Second Chance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Obzfz4xEpgY

    Nice uniform calves. You did a nice job on them.

    Opinions on these young Bulls

    I think it is hard to take good photos of cattle most of the time...they usually find a hole to stand in or whatever. As long as their is no calving problems they are nice. They seem to be Fleckvieh influenced...which usually mean higher birthweight. #1 doesn't look like a heifer bull. If...

    My favorite little heifer...

    Aren't we all the same way? I love all my heifers. In this case, she is really nice. Just wondering does Baldridge Isabel have a brother somewhere?

    Genomics

    I have a bull calf that prior to Angus GS test his YW epd would be about +70. His milk epd would be about +21. After his DNA came back his YW epd went to +100 and his milk dropped to +8. I will say that milk epds have been compressed so that the difference between +24 and +30 is significant...

    Almost Weaning Time.

    OK Jeanne, Who is this calf by? Nice grass, by the way.

    SAV Elation 7899

    There were two surprises for me. #1 Herbster Angus did NOT buy the bull and #2 Elation is NOT out of 4136. He is out of XXP, a linebred EXT bull whose photo was featured in Sinclair's Catalog with a guy sitting on top of him. At one point his Docility epd was rock bottom but it improved a great...

    Straightbreeding Angus

    I think if you develop animals with the end product in mind then it shouldn't matter the color. I think black cattle sell more based on the assumption that the qualify of the carcass is better. The number one reason why cattle don't qualify for Certified Angus beef is a lack of marbling. I...

    My new bull, give me your thoughts

    That's a good looking bull. Should do well for you and leave you with nice heifers to keep. Butch, If you could sell Brahman bulls I would breed Brahman cattle. They are like pets if you get the right kind. I had the wrong kind so I know. The right kind are like pets and they are great mamas...

    First photos of 2017

    I like the Resource heifer for sure. You are right...she's really good. I think Resource will be the top bull for registrations next year.

    S A V Premier 0096

    Gizmom, What grade would you give SAV Premier's sheath? You may see it better on the video. I really liked the ABS bull Southside until I saw some of his son's videos.

    Bennett Southside heifer.

    She's real long for a 6 month old heifer. I liked her when she was 2 months old. Her momma has done a nice job and seems to be in good shape.

    ss objective t510 o26 (again)

    It's easier to search on google. "Forum angus bull objective" or "opinion angus bull objective" This site's search engine kicks you out quickly otherwise. His daughters have produced some nice bulls. Mostly known for his daughters.

    Couple R&B Tour of Duty heifer calves

    It looks like the heifer in the first photo is going to be long bodied. They seem to have nice straight top lines.

    Opinions on Connealy Right Answer 746?

    Look at the posts under Artificial Insemination....Best Genex Sires. Everything I have seen about Right Answer has been positive. I never liked the photo Genex has of him twisting or turning, but I guess they are trying to show he is long. The only downside would be if you are breeding for...

    Online Auction: What do you think?

    What is the point of having a stopwatch countdown to zero if ALL the lots are extended? My intent was to buy more than one lot. It annoyed me because every other time that you are outbid you get an email giving you the chance to make another bid. So, if I am outbid then if I am notified I...

    Online Auction: What do you think?

    I was bidding on some embryos on an online auction. When the clock hit the scheduled end time I had the highest bid. There were no bids on my lot at the last minute but the sale was extended. At the end of the first 5 minute extension I still had the high bid. The sale was extended again for...

    REA Size

    I found this link from the Angus Association. https://www.angus.org/Nce/Carcass.aspx I hope it will help you. Gardiner Angus does more research on carcass traits than any other organization. They have a lot of videos on Youtube. I think I heard that you have to have 7 calves scanned to get...

    Senepol

    Many years ago I saw some Senepol-Gelbvieh cross heifers that were some of the prettiest cattle I have ever seen. The Senepol cattle I have seen were small, didn't show much muscle or growth. They really looked like ideal heifer bulls.
