[QUOTE="Saltydawg, post: 230287, member: 2944"] Yea I'm positive they are scurs....can grab hold of them and they are clearly not attached to to bone. 88lb BW....do not know his weaning weight and the only weight I have of him is with a tape....he measures at 1650lb's. This would make him about 600lb's smaller than JJJ Victor but he's still got some growing to do. He hasn't been used for breeding yet but has a big old sack hanging down there. The guy who owns him only has 3 Hereford cows. He ai'd them with jjj Victor semen and thats how he got the bull. The momma is about a 1200lb cow and is a decent looking animal....not a show winner but decent. The guy owes me some money.....that I'll probably never get unless I accept something in trade lol. He is a nice looking bull and have no reason to believe the owner is trying to hide anything....known the guy for years. Just don't know about introducing a scur gene in my herd. I kinda figured if he throws a lot of scurred calves I would just follow him with a horned bull and go with a horned herd since im not partial one way or the other to horned or polled. They are polled now cause thats what I started with. I dunno though lol. I do have other options for bulls but this guy looks really nice other than the scurs and it's probably the only way I'm gonna get my money back. If it makes any difference he will only breed 3 heifers, the rest are all proven cows. [/QUOTE]
