[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 38151"] We got 2 straws of Belgian Blue semen one year off a bull named Bacon. We bred him to one of our Fleckvieh simmental cows. The result was a not very tall very deep and extremely wide hairy bull. His adj. weanling weight was 880 lbs. We kept him to see what he would do and put him with our first calf heifers along with some other bulls. We came out with several bulls calves that we sold.(not cause they weren't good enough though) We had 5 heifers. We had one white speckled heifer that her coloring could have passed for a shorthorn, one red speckled heifer, one gray speckled heife, and one black heifer that had some specks on her stomach. After that year we sold the bull because of his heigth. We regret selling him to this day. All his calves have been very hairy. All of his calves were gentle. All of his calves grew great, had heavy weanling weights, milk good, raise great calves and we have never had to pull one calf related to him ever! I have never raised a purebred Belgian blue but that one experament truned out great. We have a full fleckvieh due to the same bull (Bacon) next spring. [/QUOTE]
