http://www.simmental.org/site/userimages/simbrah_color/shalles_mod.pdf Follow the link and read. Gives a very basic explanation on page one.  Keep reading if you find it interesting. I didn't understand color inheritance in cattle before college, but a few animal science classes, animal...

A blue roan can give you a red roan (red appearing) calf if bred to a cow who carries a red gene. Here she would contribute the red and the blue roan would throw white. The red/white would be genetically a red roan but could look red. However, a blue roan bred to a white animal (two white...

7/8 is PB for simmys; he's been bred up to PB status just kept that white allele so he's blue...he's just as "legit" a purebred as an Angus bred simmy up to pb status, just he sticks out like a sore thumb!! We've shown a pair of darn good blue percentage simmys and have found many of the simmy...

Thanks guys. We will try both suggestions and hopefully she can gain his trust and respect....Knabe, remind me not to be around if you are ever dropped off in the middle of nowhere, if you act like this calf is accused, I do not want to be present!  ;)

We recently(mid March) sold a steer who was green broke. He was fine, just needed some work to be show ready. Once at his new home, he began charging the girl and her parents. They say it is very bad. I advised tying all day and lead to feed, water. This worked for a small time but then the...

I've only seen a handful in person but since no one is giving you any feedback; in my opinion he makes good, moderate, sound, complete, feminine females. Not going to blow you away with power but hard to poke a hole in them.

Color can vary with flush mates(full sibs), but providing your twins were the result of one embryo implanted and then split, they would be identicaltwins and should be the same color. Now, as stated I guess something could have happened with 2 embryos accidentally being put in. But if one mbryo...

If functional,growthy,and easy calving are your requirements it is going to be hard to beat GW Lucky Break. They won't be pretty,pretty show calves, but they will come easy, be black and polled, sound, stout,easy doing, and grow like a bad weed.

We've had limited experience with Mo Better. For us, he puts a ton of rib shape, growth, and cow power into one. Very attractive leg set, yet still functional. big feet, good toes. Adds hip, ok hair. Good tail head set. Adds frame. Compared to Momentum on the same 6.0 cow, his calf is 6.5+, the...

PB Simmental Bull SDSF Something Different Z01 Purebred Simmental DOB: 01/03/2012 Sire: GW Lucky Break Dam: SDSF Joy's Noelle (STF Mr. Momentum x WSJ Encore x BHS Antoinette's Joy) BW: 78, Wt on 06/01= 720, currently ~900. (Dam was a first calf heifer) Likely Homo Black/Homo Polled (I will...

try 1441569. I typed his name in and it pulled him up with that reg #.

For us, it is: Voyager, Grandmaster, Explorer(F), GCC Whizard, Power Stroke, and pasture bred with a Grandmaster son. List seems so much shorter than in years past; the herd bull saw good use and we ended up breeding the bulk of the lesser simmys to Eye Candy to sell to our local 4-H kids.

You stated he was stealing. If he would choose a foster mom, could you pen him, her, and her calf in a smaller pasture so you could set out creep for him and make sure mama had enough to eat to milk for two? If so, you could let her help raise him until he learned what feed was and then wean. I...

She's nice. What's the Shinedown cow? Thanks! She is a Radio Active x Navaho x Dixie Chic. Attached a pic of her as a 2 y/o.

Here's my most exciting. She's a Grandmaster out of our shorthorn cow Shinedown.

Old Post. This bull is no longer available. Thanks to all for your interest. Full sibs coming this spring.

Thanks guys. Just curious, but glad it seems unanimous that he'd get through. I have a butt shot I'll post later. We've never raised american cross steers, but he's turned out to be pretty nice (in my opinion.) I wanted to get him up and start breaking etc, but didn't want to waste my time if he...

Will this calf class american? He's 1/2 simmy, 1/4 char, 1/4 gert. One pic is a few months ago; but you can see his head better in it.

Our experience has been a more showy look with Voyager vesus a bigger bodied type with Amazon. I would say Voyager is going to throw  more moderate framed, cleaner front; enough stoutness/depth. Amazon more guts and hip; pretty good fronts. Both should be good on structure.  We have only had...

Thank you. I will look into that and get him some in the morning.
