Great start. I've always liked the pictures of the cattle doc-sun posts, I don't think you can go wrong. Good luck with your venture!

Fantastic looking bull!

This statement sums it up beautifully!

Nice cattle!

Scanning all your animals is brilliant, world class, over any breed. The herd information you must have can only be astounding! An example to us all, as it makes the breed commercially relevant.

Should be nice and deep!

JMO, but the French should probably be approaching you for some real genetics! I battled to find any standout cattle in the video, in fact, lots were simply undesirable, especially udders. What a disappointment!

Was Vantage as wide at the ground as he appeared? What was his hip and pin width like? I toured Ireland a number of years ago, probably early 2000's, to look at Shorthorns with the view to importing some genetics after hearing about the success in N. America. I must have visited 5-10 herds...

Nice heifer!

JMO, but you are either a seedstock breeder, a commercial breeder, or a hobbyist. If you are not prepared to use the bull yourself, what are the chances of selling him to someone else to use? In my experience, the best money to be made is as close to weaning from the cow as is practically...

Great length on all these bulls. Good post breeding season condition too. If I could chose, the bottom one ticks all the phenotype boxes optimally for me. Particularly interesting as I bought 400 doses of Stockman and 50 doses of Yesterday. Both breeding very well for me. Yesterday progeny has...

This is a quality female. Would love a couple with her type in my herd!

J&E High Hope looks interesting, I would give it a shot if I was in N. America!

An 'old-timer' once said to me that every good dark red Shorthorn had a white in the last three generations. I'd like to add that, in my herd at least, all good Shorthorns have horned genetics in the last three generations as well. We made the decision to not keep any horned male progeny about...

What a block of a bull!

I must concur that the picture is a poor representation of the Shorthorn breed. Because of her black nose she would be deregistered from the purebred register, on inspection, in South Africa. Makes sense, but can be a blow! Had a 100% pure, DNA verified for three generations, pedigree that threw...

I can imagine that those 'belt buckle cattle' were hard calving, due purely to frame size and shape. From a logical point of view, if you reduce the size of an animal, all dimensions would be reduced, including the pelvic opening size. From the pictures I have seen the cattle looked like square...

Strangely enough, nobody has had the 'balls' to actually say that we are breeding ourselves off the face of the planet! Most likely a product of the 'welfare state' type of situation most parts of the Western world are now accustomed to. I thought Covid-19 was going to kick us into a new gear...

California, A2 milk, maybe he has a niche product here. Well done! Love it when farmers play into the hands of these internet health/healthcare specialists.

Brilliant idea!
