    A good Maine Bull to make cows

    This bull should give you great females and highly saleable male calves. The calves should be growthy without the frame, females should have great udders and great carcass, they should aid in easy calving descendant traits. Semen is available at SEK...

    Breeding Ideas ...

    Thanks knabe...stupid phone wouldn’t let me preview it, so I assumed it was correct. M.T., CDS is “CD’S” acronym and herd letters of Circle Diamond, his cattle hot iron brand. He has since passed away. Was a long time family friend and business associate.

    Here is a working clothes picture as a two year old bull Knabe and I own with O’hara’s. He’s worth a look. We can ship semen out of Universal Semen Sales in Great Falls, MT or SEK soon. He’s worth a look...

    Maine bull on PB Sim cow

    Not just “any” Maine will do that. ...and, I think they have to lack dilution from Chi’s, Holstein’s, or other potentially distracting breeds.

    Neighbours decide to get a herd, now I have problems

    Good fences make good neighbors. Not sure what your local laws are, but here in Montana, the laws vary depending if you are in an open range area or if you are in a “herd district “. Open range, you have to fence your neighbors out, a herd district, you have to fence your livestock in.  The...

    Exactly, that is case in point. For example, the 2017 GCC sire catalog is titled, Where Maternal Matters.

    Griswold sale

    Gargan, I didn't go off in left field. I shed light on Knabe's inquiry. Griswold's sell t.o.n.s of bulls. Those bulls come from this same cow base. Hence, how good are the cows? They are neat. I like the theory. No need to get hostile when someone asks a mind bending question. The bottom line...

    Griswold sale

    Gargantuan, I think Knabe was trying to shed light on the fact that of the bulls you mentioned, only Chill Factor, Whizard and Gold Standard were bred and turned out by GCC breeding. No doubt the bulls are popular, he just wanted to know, what good ones come from their program? Where do they go...

    Old Maine Bulls

    How such a high accuracy with no progeny? What would it take to get EPDs on him from where he has been used? There is another horned Fullblood Maine bull being promoted, that all account indicate should be in a back seat to Yukon. Any reasoning why Yukon's semen is not widely promoted or...
