    Talk about Hybrid Vigor

    I can tell they want the numbers-- not gonna give it to them-- decided these boys were too busy managing the culls that never will end up in the feedyard, but instead will be on the cull of the month cattle pages. I might come back sometime when I see some real interest in this evaluation...

    DNA Testing

    Much more accurate than an EPD--- Most of the people we sell bulls too want to know about homozygous black and polled for PB Simmental as they seem to sell better when that data is available.

    Angus Bull Question

    But why would you want a frame score of 6.5 to 7 in your bull/steer calves? you know they take longer to finish? Going in reverse on Frame Score is the wrong thing to do in my opinion, and as a feedlot owner we stay away from those calves period. Also many people do not consider the "type"...

    Re: What would be the best bull for Hereford cows?

    There are good and bad about all breeds but some are better than others depends what your objective is. If you are on some hot dry climate and sparse grass and native grass and you dont like Boer Goats then yeah Gerts will work. I like the San Jose KR came up with--- lil more meat to be had...

    black simmentals

    a post from 2002 I will agree that having a little Angus blood sure doesn't hurt when it comes to feeding out cattle. However, there are some many other positive factors that the Simmental breed offers that many producers using strictly british breeds are missing, such as extra performance...
