[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1783140, member: 40587"] Woke up before daylight this morning, and instead of getting the ole lady up to fix breakfast, I slipped out and went to the Waffle House. When I got in, there was Dan, the guy I got those Brown/Swiss/Braunveih recip cows from. He told me Bo had made him a hell of an offer for Frank, $8k. He said "Man,.I wish you would buy him though. Pay me $4k or whatever you think he is worth, and I will even take payments." I said I want him as bad as I have any horse, but he will be better off and reach his potential with Bo. So I said tell me about those red Brangus x Chars Clay ( [USER=42970]@Sthrncwboy[/USER] ) was telling me you had up in Trenton. He said hell I am riding up there when I get done, just ride with me, I plan on being back at 10 or so. On the way up he showed me pics and stats on the red angus and red brangus bulls he used. DAMN! Every year they do not necessarily register all the calves they have. Dan said not that there is anything wrong with them, but often they may breed one of their most expensive bulls to some of their top donor cows, Or AI one of their top donor cows to several of their bulls, etc. Once the calves are born, they may pick out the best heifer or best bull calf to register, and sell the rest of them as commercial Char cattle.

This year the 2yr old Char heifers that are calving now were bred to that red Angus bull. They are sold and he will deliver them once he gets them bred again, to the red Brangus, as a 3 in 1 deal.
