[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 1017846, member: 1715"] We used 2 Limi bulls last year on mostly baldie cows. Bigger weanlings than the previous BA bull sired. Best calves came out of heavy milking cows with a little SH in the wood pile. Seem to need milk to get a big improvement in growth... We also AIed a 4 frame Oak Park BA bull on wf heifers and Victor 719 Herf on black heifers. Kept half of the heifers calves but some will go to stocker herd this summer. Trying to be positive about energy since they did winter on cow hay - - but the BA calves just don't have the length or the capacity of the Limi X calves. Really a major difference. Victor 719 calves are a little shorter than Limi X but they have capacity and are very competitive. Use a continental bull of your favorite color for terminal calves. [/QUOTE]
