They are all really nice especially the 4th one.
 
Thanks, I think they are going to come on pretty good. They were just weaned on Thursday and never been creeped.
 
Both are very nice calves. The roan is my favorite right now, but the red one could come on and pass the roan, with a bit of time.

He has some on back there. Some Cunia, Mister T's Revolution, and CC Cujo( if you listen to what some say about his sire G-9).
 
I personally would like to see more masculinity in the heads. It is my opinion that the Shorthorn breed needs to have earlier maturing more masculine bulls. I am sure I will be acused of bashing the breed but by the photos I am concerned that these cattle would survive my enviroment......and Kansas as a whole....is a fairly representative area in the beef belt.

You are concerned that they would or did you mean wouldn't?
 
Whoops...typo would not survive. It is so ahrd to find the early maturing type Shorthorn.
 
I agree with aj. Shorthorns in general are a little late maturing. Doc, your calves look like they have some grow to them and the sure is a good looking animal. do you plan to sell them as herd bulls? They could work on black cows IMO.
