Little Red Cow and calf

[houstoncutter]

Thanks for the compliment BC. The sire of the calf is CRKT Apollo. As for relation to the Gelb. breed i couldn't say one way or the other.
Houston there is no Punch in her pedigree.[/quote


That should make a nice animal. I looked at buying the Apollo bull when he was 10 months old ,but I just didnt want to shell out the price for him. I have always used good bulls even though most of the time I am a commercial crossbred rancher. Their were some females bred the same way out of that flush. They were very impressive as well.

3way if you remember the little bull that i posted awhile back thread title was butt shot. This is the mother of that bull. Hoping this one is as good as him without the little problems he had. Want to thank everone else for the nice comments on the pair.

Jovid if she would just have a heifer calf i would be a happy camper.

That is the type of cow I would love a bull out of.

Very, very good young cow.

Really nice looking pair! Beautiful groceries! :clap:

She is just a 1250lb cow that we hope does her job without any fuss. So far she has done just that.
I had a breeding plan all layed out for her, but i have found some semen that may change that plan. Thanks for the comments folks.
Houston what do you know about a old bull called Eclaireur?

Are you sure of the spelling, if its Eclair...no but hell no... the ones I had were mean hard keepers.. Their was a Eclaireur, but I havent had any dealings with him, his epds look a little weak, but many of the old fullbloods dont have good looking epd numbers

 

[Red Bull Breeder]

No i am talking about Eclaireur. The performance numbers are weak for modern day epd's. I always look at the prodigy. Check the weaning weights and yearling weights of the calves sired by the bull i am looking at and try and factor in conditions of the time frame the calves were raised in. Lot of guess work. Got to have some bulls to raise cows from and some to raise bulls from. Rarely are they the same bull now days.

Thats the best cow on here for a while, that wasnt a hereford I mean.

 

[cow pollinater]

If they all looked and acted like that you'd have a corner on the market.
Well done. :clap:

 

[Red Bull Breeder]

Thank you CP.

With the type of animals ur trying to raise, I think I might be concerned with his Rea epd

Nice Pair Red Bull

See you at Pinegars this weekend.



Circle H Ranch

 

[Red Bull Breeder]

Houston i don't got the farm invested in Eclaireur just a few ampules. We will try it once or twice.

Thanks Bill. See this weekend.

 

[Jeanne - Simme Valley]

Congrats RBB - nice pair.

 

[houstoncutter]

Well Randy, he is in Krugerrand's bloodline , so he must have something going for him

 

[Red Bull Breeder]

The old bull shows up in a few nice places Houston. Thanks Jeanne.

:clap: :clap: :clap:

Really nice pair RBB!

 

[Red Bull Breeder]

Just a bump for a better pic of the little red cow. Same cow and calf as the big enough to wean thread.

 

[glacierridge]

That is a nice Limousin cow/calf pair. She has muscling without the round quarterhorse look. RedBull, the best compliment I can give you is that cow would be welcome to reside in my pasture and I am not a big Limousin fan.

ditto

 

[showmomof2]

Next time your over this way you could drop her off at the house-keep her in the family anyway lol! Real nice cow!

Your biggest heterosis is always going to be from polar opposites eg Continental X British, Bos Indicus X Bos Taurus etc
