    Anybody seen KEVIN KIMMERLING?

    Kevin used to take some nice pens of red bulls to Denver from his K Kim Irish Elite and K Kim Elite Design bulls. I think some of his later bloodlines are better known today but those red bulls looked good to me.

    Shorty hf bulls

    KL Prime Time Teddy has some great numbers across the board. His CED is +25 with a BW of- 3.1. Not sure why his CEM would be negative but his $CEZ is +81.70 in the top 1% of the breed!

    Shorty hf bulls

    Several years have rolled by since this thread was started. I was wondering what bloodlines have come to the forefront for others in birth weight/ calving ease. In our herd Diamond Lord Belmore 56B has proven himself to be both calving ease and lighter birth weight.His CED +18, BW -2,CEM +8 and...

    Unplanned mating that turned out!

    Sometimes you get those PPM moments that end up turning out. I obviously didn't pull the bull out of the pasture early enough last summer and ended up with one of my favourite heifers, Diamond Dazzling Maid 2D, calving at just under 16 months. The calf is sired by Frimley Cowboy Logic 24C. The...

    Changes in your breed......say the last 10-15 years

    I don't think Waukaru is focused on the show ring as much as the commercial market. The influence of Waukaru bloodlines in Australia is pretty big. We used a yearling bull last year with a Waukaru dam and his sire's dam also was by a Waukaru sire. The bull was really structurally sound with some...

    Possible donor cow

    Xbar it is good he looks like he has been "fed well" because that is one of the main reasons Jaimie picked him out! When Jaimie was there last April they had been in a very severe drought for months and he was the bull in the pens that still looked good in spite of negligble grass! When...
