    yearling bull pics

    The first one has a nice straight line but the neck seems very feminine but he is young so that could change in a couple of months. 2 looks a little sway back and 3 looks like he is lacking in the rump other than that nice looking for feed pushed bulls. They should sell well.

    What about this guy?

    If that is what he was why are you even asking anyone on here what they think?

    Angus X Braunvieh Calf

    The cow is funnel but, and how the heck can you tell what a two month old calf is going to be? Also it looks like it has an umbilical hernia. How old was the cow in the bottom pic it looks very small for a Braunvieh?

    Longhorn Horns Question

    Just passing through this post and got a little miffed after reading this.If your place is zoned for livestock I would buy the two more longhorns or maybe half a dozen that way they could gang up on the neighbors dogs and perhaps a good kick to the head will teach them manners 8) .Maybe the...

    New herd bull?

    Forgot to mention that he has to get it done in six to eight weeks max or he gets culled along with the open females.And yes they are only on 80 acres at a time because of the crossfencing.

    New herd bull?

    I was actually wondering about the scrotum circumferance size because the feed pushed bulls will be quite a bit bigger than the hay/grass fed because of the weight difference.Should I be worried about fertility?I know experts and the Vets say that as long as the scrotum is 32 or more then...
