SULL Revolution

Anybody have any experience with this bull. Planning on flushing a plus cow to him.

Not personally, I just know Sullivan is really high on him.

I have been watching a few sales with his females in it and they seem really good; big bodied, muscular and sound.  I figured they must like him well enough not to put him on the open market and only sell his semen at auction. Cow is a Thriller out of a Stout's Brutus x Vegas, she is big bodied and muscular, could be a little better off her back wheels, with less shoulder and cleaner fronted, but she does a great job for us especially raising calves.

Just flushed her today and got 7 #1 eggs out of 10 total.  We backed the Follitropin back a little since she has hyper stimulated in the past.  Very pleased, already put one stage 7 in fresh.  Hopefully have more information in 285 days

Only had one embryo put in out of that mating, looks like several more for next year.  He was born at 287 days gestation and was 78 lbs.  He has taken off, the recip he is on is a great milker and almost always weans our biggest calves.  These are all first day photos

Really long like the blue heifer in the sale photo-What do you think he wieghed? O0

We slung him right after he was born at 78.  The blue he’s out of usually has heavy calves too, but she’s a very easy keeper. On ET her others have been 80-85.

Thats not bad at all on all the calves considering the breeding-Just goes to show you-that calf looks from the picture a lot bigger-Then you guess one at 76-or 85 and they weigh 100 LOL

He changed a lot once he was up nursing. I’ve got a pick of him still in the sack, he looks a lot smaller. Also caught the birth on the barn cam. He came easy, but recip was a 1500 lb chi-Maine cow
