Is that LaGrand Reload you like? We've got a small group of daughters for sale that were sired by a maternal brother of him. They're 6-7 years old and going strong.

Yes that's him, wouldn't use him though, I'm trying to moderate birth weights a little. Took a chance when I got my present herd bull who has too much birth weight on his dams side than I really liked, so far he's done ok.

Very correct, lots of bone and long as a truck. Out of a victor bred cow.
I don't believe you! You better prove it with a photo! ;-)
The 606's are breeding machines, would take a whole herd of them.
I was concerned that they might milk too much for your conditions. How are they for size?
Progress calves are good, meaty and long. They also come easy, he is a true CE bull.
Only complaint I would have is he takes pigment away... Big time.
I am not convinced that his daughters will milk, the few I've seen photos of 's udders wasn't much to look at.
What about you?

Back to the pigment issue... at best its very unpredictable and it seems that once you've found a bull that sires pigment more or less consistantly you better stick with him for a while or atleast never go back to one with a dubious family history when it comes to pigment.
I just had a linebred calf (halfsib mating) born out of two fully pigmented parents, both grandparents on both sides are fully pigmented and yet this calf almost have no pigment.
Just to throw another spanner in the works, the same bull sired a goggle eyed calf out of a better than halfsib (paternal halfsib out of paternal halfsib dams) of the abovementioned cow that has no pigment with a dam with also no pigment.
