    Skunk tale calves

    I guess it is the Black Angus that is creating the skunk tales! If you'll read my post, I am refering to the Simmi/Limmi cross cows with Angus bull. Those cows have had a lot of skunk tails.

    Skunk tale calves

    Some of the Charolais genetics will give you an occational skunk tail. The Simmi will also do it. My wife's uncle has Simmi/Limmi Cows and breeds them to a Black Angus bull. He gets a lot of skunk tails. I have the same type of cows that we use for recips in our embryo program. If the...

    Charolais or Angus

    I'd like to see those reports! We just weaned our bull calves off of momma and grass only. Avg BW of purebred calves was 82# and the avg WW on this set was 765#. All at 6.5 months old. And this is in TX in the middle of a drought.

    Cow pics

    They look really good! I wouldn't mind having all of them in my herd. I know you have worked really hard at improving your herd and you have accomplished that.

    FEW BULLS

    Thanks for the nice replies. We are a small operation, but I work really hard at what I do. I try to produce bulls for the commercial guy. One that will not have any problems caving and will add lots of pounds. The genetics I use are known for producing good carcasses and lots of red meat...

    13mo bull comparisons

    Yes sir!!! Still using DeBruycker genetics. I have some pretty happy customers, so it's hard to try different stuff too much. I do have some Reality calves. They are all less than a year old. The first bull is a paternal 1/2 sib to reality. I've been using President because his females are...

    Black Charolais for terminal?

    I agree.. We've got some Simmi x Limo commercial cattle. I put embryos in them and then they go with a simmi bull. You can imagine the colors we get. Most of the cows are 1/2 to 3/4 sibs. So the calves are all 3/4 plus sibs and they bring an array of prices at the sale barn. All because of...

    Any pics of Char X Red brangus calves?

    Pretty sure all of my char cows but one will weigh in the 1250# range. IMO, that ain't big. They raise 700# plus bull calves and I feed them the same amount I feed my commercial cattle. I know a lot of people that do have huge cows, but to say that all Chars are huge and cost too much to feed...

    Black Charolais for terminal?

    A white Charolais cross calf is one of the most reconizable crosses there are. Why would you want to use a black char and a black cow? I think the buyer would be wondering what kind of calf he is getting. If it were smokey or buckskin, he knows. That's not even throwing in the obvious growth...

    Any pics of Char X Red brangus calves?

    I know everyone thinks of the charolais breed as terminal only. I raise charolais and they are dang good calf raisers. The cows milk and raise big weaning calves. So, why do people knock them as a maternal breed?

    1,2,3,28-31,33,38-48,50-51 Lot 1 and 2 will sell pretty high... I clipped the cattle that are cosigned by Rick Evans... The lot 41 Grid Maker cow is pretty nice. I just bought a half sister to lot 42. The 908 cow she is out of is really nice. The lots 28-31 will be out of the same bull as...
