[QUOTE="AussieLim, post: 875891, member: 17520"] Hello fellow Limo breeders, Obviously our industry is different in Australia due to a lot of Limousin X progeny being finished on pastures and not in a feedlot, however much like you guys we are after cattle with early growth, moderate frame and a ton of thickness and depth of body. Our market still demands traditional shape in our cattle (butt shape) so it is still important to have copies of the F94L gene. With all that been said we had the priviledge to visit Running Creek on a recent trip to the U.S. in May of this year in the search for new genetics. We saw many 1st calving heifers, new born calves and sale bulls by Stetson all which displayed the criteria we are after. We was very impressed with the consistence and thickness of the Stetson progeny and we then decided to flush some U.S. cows to him as well as using him in our 2011 AI program. He is yet to drop progeny here in Australia but i think the calves will have a lot going for them and i have high hopes for their introduction to our herd. [/QUOTE]
