http://www.cattle.com/semen/bulls/Mr+Clean.aspx info on Mr Clean.  He was a bull that I really liked as a kid, can still remember his picture.  Long, clean made Simmental with a lot of "look" for his day.  Chocolate colored with a white face.  I hope somebody can dig up a pic for you. 

Proven and time tested.  I am using some this year.  NO MORE MAINES for ME on HEIFERS!!!  Next time i think about it, somebody kick me in the groin.  The pain is similar but doesn't last as long.

We should be hearing about some more Headliner calves by now.  Is he working similar to Monopoly?  I have heard conflicting reports.  I bought 20 units when Monopoly started to get short.  I really like my Monopoly calves on the harder made, jack necked cows.  He has consistently added body and...

snapped a couple more last night 1)033 - Carnac x Elsie ET bull 2)0684 - Carnac x Elsie ET heifer

I have seen several very nice Dirty Hairy's on Heat Seeker cows.  The best one i have seen this spring is bred that way.  I believe reserve at MO AGR was DH x HS. 

i generally try to get them to calve at 23 months.  Calve most of my cows mid march to mid april and like to have heifers calve about a month earlier.  I do this to give them a little extra time post partum to breed and calve with the cowherd for their next calf.  It is pretty easy to back 1st...

Sievers and Maas have sold an interest in their bull Doc to Wade Rogers and Tim Heckman.  See the new flyer with info http://www.showcattlepage.com/productionclassic/images/2010/4-15-10/MAAS%20SHOW%20CATTLE%20-%20DOC%202010%20(SC)%20PRINT.pdf I have used him and had great luck on first calvers.  

that is actually an About Time.  I always had pretty good luck with him on stout boned maine cows.  Bold Statement's just didn't give me the same punch.

i found him to be bigger framed, nicer necked and more refined than About Time.  never had much luck with hair on him

thanks for the replies.  This is one set of pics from one pasture of 15 head total.  I unfortunately didn't get a couple of the better heifers to cooperate.  Visitors always welcome.  I am just 2 miles north of I 80 near the Tipton, IA exit.  All calves are for sale private treaty. 

a few more. 1) Monopoly x Reflector bull 2) My Turn x WMW/Meyer heifer 3) peaceful calves 4) Tycoon x Char/angus bull

Steer we sold in the fall of 08 - Sunseeker x Elsie (draftpick donor).  Sold to local kid.  Was Reserve Xbred at local open show, Grand Champion at county fair, reserve in IJBBA show and was a little stale by the time State Fair rolled around but stood 4th at ISF in tough heavy divsion class...

Why use oats?  in my neck of the woods, they are expensive and relatively low feed value in comparison to other grains.  If a finishing type ration, i would stay with corn and steam rolled barley, add molasses or liquid fat for additional energy and dust control.  stay high side for digestable...

corrected with more complete hotmail pedigree.

I have had several, no difficulites on mature cows.  weights ranging from mid 80's to upper 90's.  He has not worked for me on higher % Maine cows, and given the updated pedigree can guess that too much Maine would be a potential issue.  I have a couple on ChiAngus cows that look ok.  More to come. 

Simply a commentary on the times.  I was as guilty as the next guy in the 80s and early 90s for selecting big, lean, typey cattle.  I remember the day well, when we sold all the direct Cunia x Angus cows to make room for the yellow and white simmis and the orange chi's.  Showed steers that...

thanks for the photo.  What on earth were we thinking?
