[QUOTE="MurraysMutts, post: 1818025, member: 39373"] That's sort of the direction I'm headed Warren. Bull will sell as soon as his antibiotic withdrawal is over. I was hoping he would heal up but still Gimping around. I'm not even sure why the vet gave him any. There was no sign of hoof rot! Pretty sure he's stifled/injured/pulled a muscle whatever. But he would be going to the rough pasture and I can't rely on him now. Even less over there where I can't see em several times a day. Neighbor keeps on me about this "purebred" angus bull from a somewhat reputable outfit about 20 miles from here. I'm not convinced! He's a nice bull and gentle as can be but he's a heifer bull thru and thru. And I don't need one til December. I've got a little time to look. Tho I'm already looking anyway. It'll get interesting real soon. Everybody was laughing when I said I'm keeping some heifers to replace some of the older cows I sold. Well go buy a few quality heifers right now and laugh about that!! Black bull is definitely what I'm leaning towards. I'd really like a "homo black hereford" On other topic of beefmaster bulls. The nice thing about them, to me, is they can be most different colors, horned, polled, etc. But the biggest thing is, ear or not, they mash the scales when it comes times to sell. I've sat and watched sale after sale after sale around here and sure they take a small hit, not as much as one would think, but the added pounds far outweighs the discount on ALL the ones I've seen sell. As yearlings now. Not talking calves. So it's gotta fit your program! If your selling calves, go black Angus If ya wanna sell yearlings I'd go beefmaster. [/QUOTE]
