Connealy Dry Valley- Using on roughly 2/3 of our cows. Had a small group this fall and every single one is a standout. Plan to flush to him either this Spring or next. S A V Rainfall & Woodhill Blueprint- Using mostly on heifers out of lighter milking cows. Also will put some embryos in out of...

One of the owners posted this on FB in October 2020 "He was injured breeding cows last fall. We took him to CSU to have surgery to fix a blown hock. He is currently at Rocky Mountain sire services being collected. The vets gave strict no-mount orders after the surgery so they are having to probe...

We have a couple Powerballs and are really pleased, albeit, they are still young. Should know more this spring when we wean.

Not sure if he is available in Canada, but I would check out Connealy Dry Valley. They are big stout calves.

Thank you for all the insight. Love a lot of what Shape does from a pedigree/performance/phenotype standpoint. He is getting bred to about 30% of our herd (some will be heifers) this fall. Hopefully I can report good news next fall.

Makes sense. I assume you have gotten along good with all three of them? Any favorite?

Thanks for sharing that story. He would have been an awesome bull to pick up! He wasn't on our radar but we ended up getting a credit with Krebs and didn't need a bull at the time. So we ended up using it on semen instead and split it between Synergy and Shape. Since you were interested in...

Black Angus. The only new bull this fall is SydGen Shape. Everything else we have been using. Connealy Dry Valley SydGen Shape KM Broken Bow 002 S A V Rainfall 6846

Been really impressed with our Growth Fund March ET bull calf. We had two sexed heifer embryos that aborted (an environmental issue, not a genetic issue) that we are extremely disappointed about. torogmc81, are your Growth Funds moderate? We were expecting some height to them. Could be just a...

Hard to give a good recommendation not knowing what the cow looks like, but just based on EPDs and pedigree, I would look at Tehama Tahoe or maybe Connealy Dry Valley (he is a no doubt son I really like). I have both coming this fall.

Thank you everyone. We had a successful flush Monday and we will AI her in a couple weeks (not turning out with bull as our herd bull is a son of her's).

We are fairly new to flushing our donor cows and had a question about getting the donor pregnant after we flush her (conventional flush). After you flush the donor cow, can you live transfer an egg back into her? Or is there some wait period due to the drugs, etc. before she can become pregnant...

My personal opinion would be to put in the ones you think give you the best chance to move your herd forward and give you marketable animals (can't really help decide on what specific mating, as such a big part of my appraisal is seeing the cow, her calves and the production record). There is...

We time AI every cow/heifer one time and then turn the bull out for 45/60 days. We then ultrasound preg check everything about the same time we ultrasound (IMF/RE/Fat) the yearling heifers and bulls. It works for us since we run both a Spring and Fall herd. We are able to do one big weekend...

I would take a look at GAR Sure Fire. Elite marbling, cw, re proven through actual carcass records. Also, has adequate growth and you can keep and make solid replacement females out of him.

Does anyone have an insight into what the plan is for Grimmius Cattle Company? They have purchased the high selling bull at Hoover Angus Farm, Spring Cove Ranch, Gardner Angus Ranch and many other notable breeders across the country just this spring. A little reading through their website and...

Thank you. That is very helpful when choosing which donors to use him on.

Know Daybreak is an old bull. But wanted to see what everybody thought of his daughters in production? Also, what you need to keep in mind when you use him to breed? Understand docility and a larger frame should be kept in mind. Wondered if there is anything else to watch for? Our plan is to...

We had an epic bull calf this fall. You can test just for NH (they give you an identification number instead of reg. #). That is what we did. No reason to spend all that money if the calf is a carrier. I would just call AAA and tell them you want to test just for NH and they will walk you...
