I received a postcard of a new bull in the mail. His name is Discovery & he's a Ali x WAG Hairietta (my favorite cow) son. Tolle, Sinclair & Hartman own him. Not that the info is not interesting but the photographer note is. In small print mind you but there is the note: "The bull is missing part of his tail & is wearing a false switch".  I think that's the first time I've seen a comment admitting there was a change or addition made to a picture.

I thought that was a nice touch as well. I think what we are doing here on the internet (getting on here and bashing and bitc--ng about the crooked cattle and photo alterers) may have just made a small impact on our little industry  :) When I go to the bull stud, I'm sure I'll be much more shocked by the lack of bone on this bull or the terrible structure on that bull, etc, etc, than I will be by the missing tail on Discovery, but it's the thought that counts, so kudos to Sinclair

I noticed that too and really thought it was nice to see that.  They may have him on display and didn't want anyone questioning the picture.  Well done for being honest there (thumbsup)

  Cathy,  I thought that footnote was very interesting as well.

If you like that cow,  there are a couple lots of iterest at the Nebraska Classic.  In the Maine show is a full Brother to Discovery  for sale.  In the Royal Ice (Embyo) Sale they are selling Heat Wave 1 embryos out of a full sib to Mommas Boy.
