More info on Franco... You will find him in the pedigree of the Tykia bull that Derouchy used with grat success to make all those great F1's out of Angus cows.

So the Mercedes cow has a shot of Franco through aTykia cow.

Not trying to change thread direction:but time is running out on her-Due to 2 system repairs-STOUTER THAN THE PICTURE-this cow is over 12-very low bw:not very big-and older conventional breeding-some pretty good clubby cattle go back to her-long and short-flush-1: Hardings Capital gains 2: K &A Shakedown- A kneejerk reacton would be fine:thanks in advance

Sire-MSF Equiity on Huberdale PM Laura-Dam-X Byland Marjorie-Basically a whole load of Dividend-she looked just like him-down to the goggle-blaze face:she had a couple good bulls-Byland Explosian (Australia) and UB DTR Junior Walker-a Double down who barely had 1 calf crop-but produced a bunch of good show hiefers.

18 mo manitou kuda son #424505 who has too much leather that pic doesn't show for me. i do think he could produce american show steers on the right cows. he is very moderate.

That's a good looking bull. How's his heart girth? How about the fleshing ability of daughters out of him?  I don't know anything bout maines but I like how this one is put together if he's got enough guts. Great head too.

Doc-Sun, Those boys are really coming on nicely. Index calf took a better picture at this stage and looks really practical. Still like the Darco as well.

That's an extremely smooth made Full Blood.  He appears to be put together nicely. I believe he would do well at the Royal. Go for it!

I wouldn't think twice about using him on Shorthorn cows.

i like the looks of your bull. like to see a rear pic
here you go with a rear pic. added a cunia pic. i see some similar characteristics between him and yukon, but yukon is a more moderate package with more volume than cunia had when i saw him in canada. yukon also has a very different bloodline, amaa 430204.

not only that, but cunia is a carrier for monkey mouth and spastic pareisis and is over $200 unit.

i can't believe these clubby guys aren't trying to remake some of these crossed up bulls without cunia bloodlines.

Cunia appears to be weak in his top,. Was that s characteristic of some of his offspring? I'm not real familiar with his prodigy other than have seen some good cows out of him.
