Not for myself -- I'm too old for that now, LOL. I'm just keeping one eye open for a possible project for my younger brother. He hasn't completely decided yet if he wants to raise a calf, so this is just "possible calf #1".
What do you think of him? Red Angus with some Gelbvieh (sp?) thrown in the mix.
2nd from right
I think he's around 500lbs and between 5-7 months of age, raised on milk and rangeland. The herd he's from ranges from a FS-3 to a FS-5 and around 1100-1350lbs. I'm looking for a calf that will finish right around 1350-1380lbs (4H judge's preference/weight of Grand Champion calf for last few years). Opinions on this calf?
