calf picture

[Rustler9]

Just thought I would post another picture-I think this is a pretty good bull calf, born in January. For those who don't want to look at it-don't. Yeah, I'm one of those folks who takes pictures of my cattle. Every once in a while it helps sell one of them. I don't mean anything smart a** about it-I know some folks don't like to see them but I'm always interested in seeing other people's cattle. I'm going to post another one of a heifer too. She's a product on a mother/son mating. I did this on purpose hoping to get a heifer. I believe she's going to turn out alright.

This heifer was born on December 19, 2004. She's out of a blue roan cow and her black/white appaloosa son. The cow is a fairly small cow, probably around 950 lbs and she is 12 years old. She throws calves with pretty good horn growth, I think this heifer will probably have decent horns when she matures too.

Solid calves. Should do well for you.

What's the breeding like on the bull?

What really caught my eye was the deep bodied solid red cow in the first picture. The one you can just see the body and no head. What can ya tell me about her?

The bull calf is out of a big black and white Tabasco son, he's got Impressive on the bottom side. His mama is somewhere over 60" (she's on my avatar). I'll post a picture of her later if you want to see her. She's out of a Whelming King son (her mama is a King grand daughter-she's also the mother of the white heifer).

The cow in the back ground of the bull calf is a 16 year old 1/2 Hereford, 1/2 Beefmaster. She has no Longhorn in her. I have her daughter from Earl (the Tabasco son). Turned out to be a pretty good heifer.

Thanks for the compliments-I think she probably will be a small cow but I've plans for her when it's time to breed. I've got a real nice young bull, he's out of a 70" horned brindle bull named Wanted Man. Ryan probably knows of the bull. I think that by bringing in some entirely new blood that I'll get a calf that will really pop. At least I hope so.

I know the bull, Wanted Man. I saw him in person once, he's a nice bull, big horns that look like he'd through some height and twist on the horns. Not a real big bull though, but he has pretty good conformation.

Bringing in completely new bloodline should be pretty good.

I like the eared calf, he has good bone for the kind he is.
