I have looked at Regal legend 4r on two different occasions, his calves are good. he can take a bucket headed deal  and add body and dimension. I dont know if the calves come into a "square" shape quick enough for most kids looking for a hairy roan bull ? But if you want to soften up that sin city type. . he did it.  comfortable 6 1/2 frame, balance and thick. Not sure about bw or anything just thought he did a good job in that herd.

like the bull  (thumbsup)
Really looks like a solid group of cows  (thumbsup)

Northern really has an interesting program, as the breeders are "supposedly retired" they can't afford bad depositions or calving problems the Northern herd must perform with very little interference

I love this herd.... I'd take the whole lot without even thinking about it! (including the Herfs )
