    Is there a good 50% Shorthorn-50% plus bull out there.

    All I know is I see a small herd of Shorthorns in a pasture across the road from.Spring Lake Angus. They specialize in Rito 707 and sons. Some Shoshone Emulous oriented Angus herds are importing Luing bulls from Canada. Beebe us bringing one in. These guys are all improving Grassfed carcass. We...

    Coronet Max Leader

    If a short head was what a person was chasing...Felix sure has it. What I like is his wide back.

    Weston Resource and Rosa's Command 91. To me, they are similar.

    Coronet Max Leader

    Thanks for the information, guys. Cant say Max Leader is what I was hoping to see. Guess the dam side of Leader 61bears looking into. Felix is coming along very all. Beebe would like him- short and heavy. I saw something interesting the other day when I was looking at old pictures. Weston...

    A picture of Weston Surprise 14th would also be useful. Thanks.

    Coronet Max Leader

    Hi, I'm also looking for a photo of Max Leader. My Cat 20ish bull is looking very much like  Leader 61 in body type, so I'm looking for a picture of the next generation back.

    Hi, I'm looking for a photo of this Haumont bull...particularly because he is the sire of the Maid of Promise 189th cow. My white heritage bull is growing very differently from my red one ( DMH Felix). The white one, DMH Snowball, is out of a Maid of Promise 189 daughter. That cow has had...

    Heritage/Native Shorthorn Bull Listing

    Lincoln Red might be the only beef type Native genetics around. Looking at that old photo of Perfect Countt made me wonder if there is any Lincoln Red in him. I think the beef looking type Shorthorn cow you are talking about can be acquired by using Minn Max Leader semen on a good dual type...

    Heritage/Native Shorthorn Bull Listing

    Idalee...no argument here. I'd like to see ultrasound for IMF as well. I was just wondering if I could load him every week and run down to the gravel pit to weigh the trailer...but there is so much mud right now it would never work. I'm afraid he is headed for frame 6.., not what I need.

    Heritage/Native Shorthorn Bull Listing

    And...In my ( limited) experience, I've never seen a calf grow as fast as this DMH Snowball call by a Leader 6th son. I don't understand how he is doing it...the other calves, including the homeborn Galloways and crosses are just going along steady, but this one is getting heavier and taller...

    Heritage/Native Shorthorn Bull Listing

    These are half sibs by the Weston Resource son. The bull is out of a Cat 20 daughter and the heifer is out of a DMH Maverick daughter. Maverick is by Ball Dee Perfect Count. Both come from Cherry Blossom cows by Promise A Chief 01...I think we have plenty of reason to believe these genetics will...

    Heritage/Native Shorthorn Bull Listing

    We have a lot more data than our fellow Breeders could easily acces in the pre computer age. Most of those breeders are alive and kicking and what is necessary is to go look at their cattle and ask questions. This method has worked for a long long time. You really don't know until you go look...

    1930 Iowa Exp. Station report on Shorthorn Galloway crosses

    I'm shooting for this, but it sure is hard to get there. I'm going to put that roan bull on some White Galloways and see what happens. Probably have to mate those back to solid colored Galloway. Then back to White Galloway, then back to Shorthorn. It never ends. Speckle Park is similar but they...

    Myostatin gene

    Almost. You must be thinking of Buyostatin....one of the cyber-proteins.  If you inhibit Buyostatin, pop up ads become more numerous...sometimes to the point of squeezing out all other text.

    Myostatin gene

    Here is the ad our beloved steerplanet is showing me because I have been searching diabetes, obesity and metabolism.  The Myostatin mutation is addressing the same issue in cattle, I think.

    Myostatin gene

    Yes...maybe. My opinion is it would take a lot of observation and quality control to determine if the final product was more palatable.  The producer would have to understand the physiological differences in the muscle fibers they are producing and have input on the processing protocol. Less fat...
