My sunseekers always have the most hair in the summer compaired to any of my others. I do have some special editions that also have some good hair this summer yet.

If you have any trees or anything cows can rub on I would stay away from estrotect. You will have a bunch of patches scratched off from cows rubbing on things......not real jumps. I have had the best luck with KMARS. I hardly ever loose one and don't ever get any false reads. It takes constant...

On my bigger cows I will usually put them farther back, then on all the heifers and smaller cows I put towards the front of the tailhead.

Really like the red angus calf.

I heard a story of someone in northern IA that bought 40 bred angus heifers all bred to him a year or 2 ago and he had all kinds of issues calving and rear leg issues as well. I myself have not used him though. Mainly because of that. That guy runs a 200-300 hd commercial farm and usually has...

I am probably looking at using 2 bulls, 1 on heifers and 1 on cows, and with my cows most of them can calve 100 lb plus unassisted so thats no issue. I do need to buy some semen from my genex rep this year, but options are limited. The 2 bulls there I liked but had no info on was Touchdown and...

My herd is all crossbreds mainly angus/simm with a little maine and a few charl/angus x cows. 2 problems. Kept back quite a few heifers out of the first crop of calves out of my simm bull just too good to let go so need to find an AI sire for most of them. Now I have some club calf genetics, My...

Most of mine depend on the dam, cause I have had quite a few around 80-90 and then I have some cows that throw 100lb calves no matter what and with sunseekers its usually a 95-105 lb heifer and bulls run 100-130.

Genex puts on classes. Don't know if there are any close to you or not.

If you don't have meyer in your backround already sounds like a good bull to try. If your like me though I started out with some meyer 734 grandaughters and I have kept ever single heifer they have ever had so just another meyer bull I cant use. The market is so flooded with meyer brothers...

Still my favorite calves to raise. Heifer in my avatar plus another I kept back both had One and only calves and they have the potential to be the best I have ever raised. And both of them this is their 2nd calf. Over the past 5 years I have prob had 10 sunseekers and worked with prob 20 between...

Its not a proven deal by far yet, but so far at my place my One and Only calves look like they are going to be some of the best I have raised if they keep going like they are now. I have some out of simm cows but the best are the 2 out of my sunseeker/simm cows. Even the calves out of cows with...

I am getting some of the best calves I have had out of a TNT Ever ready son. I kept back 4 or 5 heifers out of his first calf crop and they all look like they are going to make great cows.

I have not found anything, bred some maines, angus, simm/angus, meyer/maine, meyer/angus with no standouts. All of them went to the salebarn except one replacement heifer.

I have had great my turns the past 2 years. He has never downsized anything I have bred him to and usually added frame. Sad to say this year I lost a My Turn that was the biggest calf I have ever seen out of anything to one of my best cows. This was the best calf I have ever seen as well. He was...

Real good, they are all coming easy and have some bone to them. They have lots of straight hair. Still tough to say what they are going to do yet but they look like they have alot of potential. They lucky breaks I bred to are great cows but have terrible heads and front ends but the calves look...

I only have 1 or two more to calve out of all the ones I bred to both special edition and one and only. Bred some simm angus and meyer 734 cows to special edition with great results. Alll the calves were up quick on their own and calved unasisted. Only have one ground zero 3rd calver to go...

Can't believe they didnt knock the horns off her before the sale. She looks good though......you might want to delete this before you create some competiion bidding on her.

If your free moving make sure to slope the concrete for the whole room to one location and that would allow everything to drain and clean easier.

I calve first part of march and they all get cut in the spring along with vacc. They also get implanted when cut and then implanted again when weaned in the fall. Some guys stay away from implants and that might be their reason for holding off to get more growth out of them. Usually they don't...
