Were not supposed to start on the older cows till May but thanks to Original Prankster one of our bucking bulls were already going-had a couple yesterday. The calves aren't all that bad-I guess your getting the max hybrid vigour possible-the sad commentary on some Angus cattle is those Brahma crosses winter better. But by god keep pumping those milk epd's up there. I've never used some of the breed marvels for milk but I know how frail the wrong kind of plus 20 milk cattle can be. We ran exotic cow for a long time here and I'll be damned if I'm going to run Angus that I've got to treat better than Charolais. On another note cow prices are a nice surprise-I shipped an old half simmy cow yesterday-the biggest cow I own-she weighed 1305 and I got over $600 for her about $200 more than breds were bringing this fall. She was 16 years old and had twins last year so didn't owe tooo much of a board tab-a direct daughter of Irish Black Knight out of an old Nichols Landmark L56 cow.
