no. we had problems getting a fitter for the videos so i put some maine embryos and semen in the maine express deal at the end of the month and moved the angus and simmental to our april 21 tradition group sale.  i still may try to put together an online sale including a lease option for my maine fullbloods and a couple of maintainers bred differently after getting the bulls home from the feedyard and getting them cleaned up and videod.

fullblood bull with an example of a cow you get if he is crossed on blacks, reds, or even solid clubbys. most blacks will stay black but i wouldn't call the red results undesireable.

 

[doc-sun]

I like the no guts no glory theory doc-son. Go for it.

Knabe. That is one awesome looking cow. She is the reason I like Maine's. You've been holding out on me. LOL. What is her pedigree? Hook up with doc-son and breed her to Darco. I'll bite.

prairie blizzard semen too weak to use for flush (thats what you get when you trade 20 yrs ago)  but am going to send it in for 50k and dna testing. used sdr truman a fullblood by calberta chinook for flush. have had calves out of that semen including a good black polled bull last fall out of a halfblood ali cow that was in denver champion pen.

i guess one way to get scottish echard is through manitou's palliser or his sire.

Saw the Palliser bull while he was still at Gary Graham's and had some offspring out of him in our feedlot.  I really liked him especially the length he put in the calves.

 

[knabe]

Only registered calf out of Newhouse George.

Gary probably is only person with semen on George.

Stenburg's Raphia is my favorite sire group of the sale. I really like CWC Zip (I believe that's his name).

lot 10 goes back to your 6l cow.

 

[FB-Maines94]

Personally, I like the looks of Lots 1, 19, & 21 the most. They aren't as refined as I like them but still some nice bulls.

 

[doc-sun]

fullblood pair

 

[knabe]

Personally, that calf has depth that everyone is looking for.

Stenberg's Raphia II bull is no more so there are very limited offspring off of him.  CWC Zip comes out of MELS Benz who I bought out of their show string at Farmfair.  I really liked him when I showed against him in Red Deer and then again at Farmfair.  They gave me a really good deal on him because they thought that he would be hard to sell with so much white on him, but on my red cows the majority have been mostly red.  I would have missed out if I had been buying based on color.

I would have liked to keep lot 1, 10 and 21.  However since this is our first sale I put everything in just to draw people and make it high caliber.  That is why I am reserving the right to draw semen on lots 1 and 10.  I have a full sister to lot 21 so thats how I'm keeping the genetics.  Lot 19 is a decent bull he's just has too small of a frame for me but I've heard that what they are looking for in the USA.
