350,000 Dollar Bull

[Ol' 243]

Hinman Angus bull sale on Tuesday, one sold for $350,000. . . . . . . . . . . WOW

You can bet it didn't really sell. It just traded hands, like most high dollar bulls.

If it really sold for that I don;t think it would be good for much. With it being wrapped in bubble wrap and kept away from everything it sure couldn;t do much.

It had to have gone to a AI stud company. We went to a bull sale this year top selling bull went for $100,000. A SAV Renown son. Joe

Wonder what the yearly premium would be to insure a bull at that price?

But at least it was profitable to feed him abit more.

+1 Holy smokes what a barrel they're going to have to put him on hay for a while.

 

[talltimber]

how much without the lice? :lol:

912lbs Angus at weaning time.... Holy shyt.

 

[lithuanian farmer]

Hard to imagine such weights on Angus.
Have seen two young huge Charolais bulls once. One was 15 months old, over 2000lbs, another was 14months old, abit over 1900lbs. It's easier to imagine such weights in Charolais or Maine Anjou breeds than in Angus.

Wonder how long it'll take to make money on him?

 

[Nesikep]

I wouldn't buy it, I'm rather certain I'd be very disappointed if I expected those kinds of growth numbers on his offspring without a massive feed bill

 

[TennesseeTuxedo]

He's too fat for my liking.

 

[callmefence]

We've seen everything short off a knife fight over people using mo....uh. crossbred bulls.
Here we are at the far opposite extreme. Can anyone explain the logic of it.?

I'd be more interested in using his sire... then I could sell 1/2 brothers for 1/2 price...right?
