Really coming on nicely. I'm partial to that Darco calf (Super outcross potential, IMO). Looks like he's going to have more guts like his sire. Were the birth weights reasonable?

Any know anything about the mariehamn or rocky lane Fullbloods in Canada?

Both really nice bulls. Can't tell which one I like the best. They look very practical with a lot of quality.

INDEX is the sire of SLASH. He was lightly used but produced some good cattle back in the early days.

Obviously, you have some nice pics of some Index progeny, but could you describe what kind of calves he throws?

index only had 1 well known son in the early days. windex was a polled purebred son and the one i remember most as a sire of structurally correct calves with some look to them. thickness was more dependent on the dam. index was used mostly in the well known bar u herd in canada. a few good sons came to the usa, but the mid 70's cattle crash cause most breeders who used them to disperse at the yards. my 3 full brothers are all correct and hit their track. slash has the most shoulder and some leather under his chin, but is moderate and thick with alot of bone. the calf born last fall is also moderate in a smoother package. i think he will feed into a great combination bull. the young calf has the look and a tremendous top. if he develops volume as he grows he could be a great one. the cow will determine alot of what the calves will look like, but they will be structurally correct and cross well with thick cows with volume. i don't know of any other index semen except what's in my tank, but would buy some more if available.

Thank you. That helps me quite a bit. We have some semen we are thinking of using.

[Telos]

... I'm still partial to the Darco calf but the Danigo looks very three deminsional with a lot of capacity. The Danigo's I've seen in the past were very similar in design to yours (by the picture) and if I'm correct were known for good females that could really milk.
