The banner for the "Redneck" bull says he's a Monopoly, not MAB, and the steer is listed as $53,000 not $35,000 http://www.mattlautnercattle.com/denver-display-banner-for-matt-lautner-cattle-new-in-2018-red-neck/#post/0

I used one of these on a farm in Australia. It works really slick, but unless you have enough space to store all your bales on the ground, you still need a loader of some sort to stack/unstack the bales.

I have no facts to contribute, but possibly a theory. If the vaccine caused infertility in the bull later, the value would be lost and they probably wouldn't be able to prove it was the vets fault to claim value from his insurance. However, if he "accidentally" castrated the calf, then the...

I do like him, but I'm a little concerned the linebreeding will be too much with Bonanza being his sire and the sire of HP Manimal 1C (so paternal grandsire to one of my heifers). I've tried to find the formula to calulate COI, but I am not confident in the answer I got.

I'm looking for ideas of a bull to pick up semen on for my 5 replacement heifers next summer. My primary goal is quality replacement females, 2nd is commercial oriented herd bulls, and 3rd is steers that will grow. The pedigrees are as follows: HP Manimal 1C x Homedale Blizzard 820 Saskvalley...

Because the goal of a branded program is generally to promote the use of a specific breed within commercial operations, and requiring commercial producers to undergo genetic testing on calves to qualify for premiums would be a hard sell. Even if the association paid for the tests you would still...

I thought they only used 15 sires in the Illinois test? 20 units of each to breed 300 cows... plus I just watched the American Rancher video and Montie said 15 were used on that episode.

Genex already has one. I believe they were marketing semen on him before the original even died. http://genex.crinet.com/beef/index.php?action=DETAIL&code=1AN01259&lang=EN

What's the registered name or reg. # on that white bull?

Your success will depend heavily on how close and involved you can be with the process. It is very time sensitive, and relying on family to do it can be disastrous. Speaking from personal experience, 2 years ago I calved 100% in August. In the past 2 years I haven't been able to manage my cattle...

Why did this thread go from being about finding a shorthorn herd bull to being an anti-defect propoganda thread? Start a new thread if you want to talk about defects, but leave this one for those of us looking for herd bulls.

I got 3 embryos from Fischer Cattle Co. A few years ago that were sired by Castlerock, but I don't know if they would have any semen on him

Thanks!

Any semen results? Specifically the Banjo share, Compass semen, and Global semen? Thanks!

Thanks for the responses! There are several points I hadn't thought of, namely vet expenses for little things like a foot abscess. I'll have to make a list of these things to discuss with my potential partner, and probably get an agreement drafted. Does anyone know of any other questions I...

Nobody has any insights to share?

Looks like Sullivan's and Vogels are the only 2 Revival consignors from Iowa, not sure how close they are to you.
