[QUOTE="simme, post: 1772388, member: 40418"] Story on Kenny's 600U bull calf. Some of this will be info that Kenny does not know yet. He had mentioned that he would like to find a 600U bull calf. I told him that I had 1 straw left and would try to get it in a cow. I plan the matings before breeding time, but will sometimes change that up when the cow is in the chute. We bred the cows first time and saw that we had not used the 600U straw. 45 came back in heat and we used the 600U straw. I load the gun and my daughter does the breeding. When I pushed the plunger up to get the bubble to the top of the sheath, it looked thin and runny. I did not feel good about the semen. It is old after all. But she settled on that service. The 45 cow is the granddaughter of a 2005 cow that we purchased from the Creek's. That old cow was the most productive cow we have ever had. She retired this spring at 17 y/o. I just looked at the 45 cow's pedigree. 600U also appears 7 times in 45's pedigree if you go back 7 generations. Powerdrive appears twice. This calf has plenty of 600U and a good dose of Powerdrive and is moderate framed (5+ I guess). Time will tell how the calf develops. [/QUOTE]
