good question... we don't calve til March but gives a chance to think back at last years calves.. I-80 Suh were the best of the Maines... unstoppable seems to be consistent on the Maine side I have some " all that matters" and "no worries" coming

when we were getting calves ready for the sales there were lots of clipping opportunities,,, then once the sales were over no one clipped the calves that didn't sell ... there were 4-6 here all the time that a beginning clipper could have worked with... most are still here .. you are welcome to...

I think yellow repo 1/2 maine from Kris Black .. Genetic Horizons has it

I did not see "new technology"... in regards to simplicity... I saw Lautner's group and must confess I did not look there for a Maine bull  .. I see where Simplicity was reserve grand Maine bull.. I wish I had noticed him

Since I am primarily interested in breeding Maine anjou females I didn't pay much attention to the clubby bulls out of MAB, Monopoly etc...I also kinda skipped over an I-80 sons I saw several nice angus bulls ... the one that really caught my eye was a Silverias bull ... but it looks like...

Daddy's money x I-80

we have not had great luck with respiratory infections if they become chronic... we have had a few posted and Mycoplasma Bovis ,Mannheimia, and Pasturella have all been implicated.. It is difficult to know which comes first at necropsy the lungs are collapsed and hemorrhagic with pus in them...

I think his name is close to Mitten Man and that knocks off his recognition a little bit., A friend of mine tried Mitten man to make cows and was disappointed in the calves performance I remember liking Maine Mans  Denver pic and there are some nice calf pics here on steer planet...I don't see...

You are correct in that a lot of the lo birth weight bulls go back to Ali.. and a lot of the other bulls  go back to hard core... GVC Suh, and the other GVC bulls wouldn't.. The DMCC bulls won't except Mark has been using some I-80 lately I notice Yardley has a limited edition, irish whiskey...

I think you are probably on the right track.. some high quality females with some middle and performance I also know what you mean about more rib... I think that is the most difficult thing to breed up to in the Maine deal... Remember that if you want to show heifers as high percentage they...

I still have some and will probably try again

I tried some Armada last year and didn,t get any on the ground..

I don't know anybody in California that would know the breeders in the area... if I was ever to get to the west 1/3 of the states and wanted to know about honest cattle I would call Gib Yardley.. He will know every breeder in that part of the world and could steer you the right way... I suggest...

are you going to need help/instruction on feeding, halter training and fitting? how about trailering some breeders could be more hands on than others regarding that.. .what state are you in Your ag or 4-H advisor could steer you also.. plan on taking at least 3-4 years to learn/work your way...

Bronco fan... I thought about your last post and I wonder how big that heifer is now... although I-80 is used a lot on heifers he will occasionally produce a 90 or so calf.. if she is going to be 1000 pounds at breeding and you feel good about her background then that should work out OK If she...

and good yello repo steers or heifers will both be sellers ... if you get good heifers and don't want them please let me know

chest width and spring of rib are both desiable traits and I suspect that is what you mean when you talk about width.As long as the cattle aren't sickle hocked you should be good on rear width... Look at Yelo repo on genetics horizons and study his background a little ... about absolutely...

on the other hand ... to upsize a click I am using "X" and a new bull from DMCC called Blck Gold 500... and I thing NAGE Ante up may fit in here... 2 clicks up  SUH and DMCC Limited edition... man I love the Suh calves" disposition and performance ... haven't got a female yet

on the downsizes question... I am not a frame score guy... but I think to win a State Fair mature heifer show the heifer needs to weigh 1200 to 1300 or more depending on condition as a 3 month bred heifer (at 15 months of age).. if you are breeding to 1300 pound cows I-80 may not quite get them...

I sent you a PM
