Hot is important but "quickness, stamina and agility" are important too. :lol2: :lol2: Amazing how often two bulls get to pushing and shoving and while they do this little "sneaky Pete" the third bull gets the goodies. :cowboy:JSCATTLE":3jnikwjb said:I run 2 bulls but one is 2 years old and the other is 5 years old . Funny thing Is I ended up with more baldy calves out of the young Hereford bull than I did out of the older brangus bull . Both tested hot this past spring I guess the young guy like cows more than the old guy .
You not old enough to know that it goes further than it used to?JSCATTLE":ddsler4x said:I run 2 bulls but one is 2 years old and the other is 5 years old .

We also get a lot of that same report"more baldy calves than other--------- sire. Now!! nobody get mad and don't cuss me out, but most horned bulls are naturally better breeders than most polled bulls. It is a fact and my only explanation is that the lord made all original bovines with horns and we changed most all the way we want them. You can only fool Mother nature so much.TexasBred":1rasnd44 said:Hot is important but "quickness, stamina and agility" are important too. :lol2: :lol2: Amazing how often two bulls get to pushing and shoving and while they do this little "sneaky Pete" the third bull gets the goodies. :cowboy:JSCATTLE":1rasnd44 said:I run 2 bulls but one is 2 years old and the other is 5 years old .

Many many folks have drank the Kool Aid and think that in order for beef to be good it has to have black hair......gimpyrancher":1xwzhhx4 said:How many of the cows we have today are anything like they were 150 years ago? Haven't we bred certain things out and certain things in that are different? Are the weights roughly the same?
At last we're not drinking Pied Kool Aid like you do.CKC1586":1vw620ho said:Many many folks have drank the Kool Aid and think that in order for beef to be good it has to have black hair......gimpyrancher":1vw620ho said:How many of the cows we have today are anything like they were 150 years ago?

I thought the same thing. I wondered if they got so thin from fighting or if they looked like that when they were put in the pasture. Those bulls may have looked pretty good on day 1, I don't know.ANAZAZI":2gb6pywn said:When I read the title of the post; and then saw the pictures, I was certain that the mistake was to put two sorry androgynous bulls, devoid of any muscle, in with a decent if not good cow. I guess I was wrong then.
Well at last another negative comment. Wondered how long it would take. How do you prepare your black hair? You don't know me at all if you think I drink anyone's Kool Aid. I am perfectly capable of thinking for myself. Hope you had a nice thanksgiving. Enjoy your cattle. You never know when life may deal you a lousy hand. :wave: :tiphat:Taurus":gffmn3zp said:At last we're not drinking Pied Kool Aid like you do.CKC1586":gffmn3zp said:Many many folks have drank the Kool Aid and think that in order for beef to be good it has to have black hair......gimpyrancher":gffmn3zp said:How many of the cows we have today are anything like they were 150 years ago?
