Our newest inventsments, we have fallen victim to the dark side

[Bradenh]

thanks to shortdawg and steerplanet we have had the oppritunity to purchase our first taste of shorthorn cattle down here in texas and i want to take the time to post some pictures of them and say thanks to jason and shortdawg! feel free to tell me what you think

we have only had these here at home for 3 days so green is more or less to be expected, steer is the roan october weighing a whoping 282 pounds- he is out of shortdawgs blanco bull and a sunny day coldstone cow

heifer is a september vegas x radioactive and i promise she doesnt have any structure issues dispite looking straight in the picture of the profile, it was all i could get due to the fact that she wanted to try to run back to georgia  <beer>

The Dark Side, Dude, ou rock. We love the shorties... they are adictive. we too have a calf out of a vegas cow solid white out of Jakes Proud Jazz. she is cool. also have another WHR shorty way to go cant wait to yall at a show.

 

[Bradenh]

for sure! i also like the attitudes, mabey next time we see you if we have shorthorns you wont have to be calling an ambulance or trying to bring me back to earth after a good knot on the head like a few years back

Nice calves,,,horns aren't so bad,,,if I didn't have 3 breeds already I think they would be fun to play with!

 

[linnettejane]

nothin' dark about the shorty side!  i love mine and wouldnt trade them for anything! 

very nice!  i love that heifer!!!  i wish i had known she was for sale, lol

keep us posted on their progress

 

[shortdawg]

;D looks they are content being Texans now !

 

[MCC]

Nice calves! I really like them. Congrats to both of you. (clapping)

 

[Bradenh]

thanks guys!!!

Hey B, make sure those calves have had respiratory vaccinations.  Some of the Shorties we have raised down here seem more susceptible to respiratory problems.  Can't wait to see them in May and good luck.

282 lbs i hope that is a misprint

 

[Bradenh]

not, he was 282, but thats after he had been hauled 15 hours and was shrunk down to nothing

 

[Bradenh]

here, i feel like this one does the steer more justice

What shows are you taking your heifer out to in Texas? We travel the to some jackpots in your area.

Well that hiefer has had tremendous stress -and mybe it makes her want to run-but to look that good shortly aftera trip like that:-I believe shell run with the  --_(short) I mean Big Dawgs O0

Would love to get into shorties also.  It seems that a lot of the talk on this forum is shorthorns.

I would highly recommend Shorthorns I absolutely love ours and know many other breeders feel as highly about them as I do
