I don't know the why of it....I believe the current registration guidelines still require horned animals to be dehorned. If you see an ASA registration number that is not preceeded by an X it is a horned animal. (A preceeding asterisk indicates a some percentage of other genetics, usually Maine...

I like the Shadybrook Scotty daughter....I have some semen in the tank, just haven't used it yet. It's nice to see a daughter out of him. In regards to horned shorthorns....there are a lot around, you just see them de-horned since that is what the association requires.

Well Joy....what are we supposed to do when all the information we have is a picture and the person that posted the picture says "what do you think". I assume that means they want feedback good or bad.

My first thoughts were Shorthorn cross and angus bull on the calf.

Thats the one.

I'll try and answer several questions. His sire is Affirmed (cherokee canyon x logan) and his dam is a straight bjr pedigree out of make my day. He weighed 73 at birth and 585 at weaning. I'll have yearling weight next week.

Thanks kiku.

I know sorry about that. I have trouble for some reason. I don't think I can delete post.

We have raised this calf and are going to use him on our sring heifers. It is just shy of one year. Let me know what you think. IMG]http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u152/ebrown512/yearlingbull_edited.jpg[/IMG]

I've downloaded before and I'm following the instructions. When I click upload/submit it goes through the process and says it was succesfully downloaded, but there is no pic. Just the pics from several months okay. Any ideas?

I have seen some Marias advertised in the $200 to $250 range. Don't know if that is the going rate or not.

The second one is just my type...is the catalouge online somewhere?

Really like the cow. Raise a few shorthorns and I would love to have a cow with her shape, frame and udder structure. How is the cow bred....and on the bull "not so much"

Lonkers is the place to find semen on the old BJR sires. The have info on their website. I think they purchased most if not all of the semen inventory at the BJR dispersal. I've purchased semen on several old BJR sires including 5112-23L and Yogo from them. Nice people and a nice program. Just...

I think generally speaking most people just like the way heavier boned cattle look vs. finer boned animals. They just seem to catch your eye more, especially as a calf. However I will say more bone = more birthweight.

Well.....He might and again I say might improve your longhorns.

Dun, I understand your sentiments about the gene pool. We've been at the Shorthorn deal for about 13 years and I still get frustrated at times. However people are working on it. I beleive there is a place for good clean SH genetics and the breeders that are reputable and reliable will benefit in...

Thanks for the comments. We are really happy with them. They all were born in April. All of them are out of registered shorthorn cows and a R. A. bull. (Lancer son for those RA breeders that might want to know) They are all out of first calf heifers so I think that makes them even more impressive.

All the calves under our Durham Red photos are out of a RA bull and shorthorn cows. We like the red angus for lower birth weights, moderate frame, fleshing ability and maintaning body weight.

We have started collect a few red angus to help in our Durham Red Program. This was taken May 12th and she is still nursing her October 05 heifer calf.
