I just had to brag about my new bull-I think he'll make some pretty useful baldies. After looking at the cows in his background I had to have him. I'm going to put up some U'S semen on him and if he proves out as I expect him too in a few years there will be some for sale. I hadn't seen that newborn pic yet-I wish I had some good Hereford cows.

So is 928 your bull now? Wow, don't know what's worse doing biz with Texans or Canucks???????

 

[Northern Rancher]

Everybodies money spends.

 

[starvin'dog]

I calve a bit earlier than you NR, if you want some help provin' him up.

 

[nortexsook]

Are you just tempting me to say something with the everybodies vs. everybody's usage?

LOL.......

 

[Northern Rancher]

Just bites mys tongue lol.

 

[nortexsook]

Actually if you paid him in Loonies he'd probably be better off in a year if he just pocketed the Loonies. The dollar is toast. So doing biz with Canucks is probably not all bad.

 

[Northern Rancher]

Our dollar is over yours today but it still cost me a bit extra to buy the U'S stuff I needed.

SOLD! I'll take the pair.

when can you deliver?

 

[nortexsook]

I'm betting AD would need a pretty penny to part with the cow!

 

[Northern Rancher]

He shouldn't he's got lots just like her :wink:

-I wish I had some good Hereford cows.

Salina was selling bred cows for $1800 a piece last wednesday.... I decided that 30 of my commercial cows are now for sale.... some bred to a bull from Hereford 76.....

bring your trailer, but leave your touqe at home .....don't want the neighbors thinking we are being invaded

 

[Northern Rancher]

You don't deal with poachers so I'll have to pass on this one but thanks for the offer.

 

[I Luv Herfrds]

He has sure filled out since I saw him this fall.

NR will have to post pics of the calves he gets out of him.

I'm going to put up some U'S semen on him and if he proves out as I expect him too in a few years there will be some for sale.

I'd go ahead and sell semen now and let everyone else prove him. Why wait for a few years? Where's the advantage? Nice bull.

 

[Northern Rancher]

The whole premise of the A'I company Dylan and I started is to market semen on bulls that are proven in traits we feel are important to the commercial rancher. The industry is full of companies pushing the latest and greatest for their customers to find the flaws in. The young bull shows some potential but until there are some daughters calved out and bred back-till his feet have stayed good for a few years etc then we'll look to marketing him harder. One thing that differs from selling semen to purebred breeders is that commercial outfits will use a bull in volume year after year if he does whats needed at their place. Purebred breeders for a variety of reasons don't often do that.

 

[GM88]

The company you and Dylan started do you sell semen now?? If so what are the bulls.

 

[Northern Rancher]

I'll post the link to our website as soon as we get it finished completely.
