[QUOTE="tryinhard, post: 120338, member: 2007"] About 4 mths back I bought a black bull calf from a fellow a few miles from me, when the calf was on its moma it looked wonderful, well muscled. he weaned it, with some heifers, then told me that he was gonna take them all to the sale. I told him that I wanted the little bull, which I thought it was taken off of moma too soon, weighed, bout 400 lbs I put him in the pasture with only ten or twelve cows and another bull, black brangus, bout 900 lbs. well the cows were not setteling, had the brangus checked, he was shooting blanks, sold him, then put the charolais back with them, had to move the little bull to another pasture where only eight or ten cows were, it's dry here, but they have pretty good grass, n hardly feed in the summer, but the smaller bull has not muscled out like I figured him to, when on his moma, He is probably 700 lbs now and has bred some cows, but his but is not full, his neck is not like I think it should be. He is from a good reg.black angus cow, old though, and a very fine reg. black blaze face semintal bull. What do I need to do, I think he has the genes to be a good producer, but he does not look too bullish to me. Or is it too soon, he is around 8 mths old, maybe nine mths. Should I just give him more time? will be feeding before long. I wish I could put a pic on here, but this comp is as old as I am, antique. Will he fill out, do you think, am I in too big of a rush. Thanks for your replies. [/QUOTE]
