Calves-What do you think

[ffamom]

We are in the process of breeding up our Simbrahs. Some are 3/4 and some are purebred. Any suggestions on what we need to look for when we breed the dams back next year. Already rebred this year.

Simbrah Bull (September 2010)

3/4 Simmental 1/4 Brahman (December 2010)

3/4 Simmental 1/4 Brahman (Feb 2011)

Simbrah Heifer (February 2011)

Pretty nice calves, would sell well around here.

You're certainly doing more things right than wrong, I'd make sure you only use very deep bulls with lots of heartgirth.

 

[ffamom]

Wow- You're so right. They are all tight in the heartgirth. Here good Simbrah semen is hard to get. They make you buy more semen than you need or force you to buy cattle from them to get the semen. I think this philosophy has really hurt the Simbrah breed. Hince, why we are breeding our ours to Simmentals.

Those are some nice results.
