[QUOTE="waihou, post: 741462, member: 6511"] Just been reading through the White Angus thread-so thought you might like to see some MG's! No breed other than Angus allowed to breed up the NZ version, and that was 40 years ago. [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v439/SUEC/YorkvaleExaltE273.jpg[/img] [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v439/SUEC/showanimals012.jpg[/img] Here is one of our unweaned calves, born 3rd August 09. We are hoping to sell him at an All breeds Bull sale in May if he continues to grow after he is weaned. He's gaining over 1.6kgs/day to date, is that about 3.5lbs? Just showed him on the weekend at a local All Breeds beef competition where he competed against Simmental, Herefords, Red Polls, Highlands and Galloways and beat all the adults to win the Supreme Champion award, much to our suprise. No fancy brushing and fluffing, just a good wash. He had a feed off his mother at 6am, took him for a 2 hour ride to the show for the day and home in time for tea! Ours is an all grass operation, no fancy feeds apart from hay and silage in winter, outside all year round. A small operation 30 breeding cows on 52 acres. He was clipped a week ago to remove his baby coat, scrubs up quite well! He weighs a little over 350kgs -about 770lbs and will be weaned in about a month. Here are his Mum and Dad, mother is 3rd generation home bred.
