    Actually, they are the better of what I already had. They both were both eating at my feet until I had to get my son to take over most chores. Now one turned sour and can't get her into the catch pen to load and get bred.

    I see this post still lives. Five month fullblood.

    Brahma cross bull prospect

    I also have issues with your words of "Uniformity sells..." and crossbred bull. I just don't think you'll end up with what you are looking for.

    A Different Type of Piedmontese

    In this case went to the owner. I'll PM you his info.

    A Different Type of Piedmontese

    Color is main issue, but it's the same problem all over and I don't have a clue how to change someone's mind. Probably still going to be the marbling issue, when in fact it is a very tender meat. Bone, depth and an overall balanced is what I jumped out at me first. This guy has enough bone...

    A Different Type of Piedmontese

    This guy (LVC WONDERS 5005 C) won the Denver Pied show for 2019 and I just purchased semen from the new owner. He might just change a few minds about Pieds.

    My Fat Bottomed Calves

    Since the commercial grading part is really a mute subject my steers have no chance in competing. A steak challenge where flavor and tenderness would shine.

    Lighter boned is a breed trait. They are later maturing, so unless you are crossing to a lbw black or whatever I'd advise to breed no earlier than 18 months for most fullblood over fullblood matings. They normally make excellent mothers.

    I know I sound like a breed pimp, but I think you'll find both with pieds.

    Thank you, Jeanne. Probably the most logical explanation I've read. Somewhere someone needs to wake up to what these animals produce and change the attitude that lean meat can be tender.

    No t-shirt, but like you, I joined the quadruple club. I don't think my air would be so bad, but I had pulmonary fibrosis before the surgery. Even on oxygen I can't get very far without a break.

    My guess is it's not marbled and goes against the trend. It's slowly catching on in private markets

    My Fat Bottomed Calves

    Thanks! Last ones I took that showed the extra muscle did. My guess was around a dime.

    I really like them at this stage because of that "pop" look.

    You buy 'em and you can do anything you like. :lol:

    My Fat Bottomed Calves

    Thanks. Much easier to do when you only have a handful of animals.

    Sim-Angus calls them thoroughbred, but I agree with you in the rear end. Thanks!

    Your limo mixed herd look awfully good.
