Hey, didn't we have a member on here from the American Aubracs Assoc? Or were they only on Cattle Today? Username was AubracsUSA or something, but I don't see it on the members list.
Yeah, yeah, I'm thinking of trying lots of things........ all the time. My wife has started revising our floorplans for our new house to incorporate a room for me to hash my little plans and ideas where the rest of the family can't hear me. It's 4x8 with a cot, a wash basin and a coffee can. She tells me it's my "study", but it seems a little small to me. :lol:
Here's a link-there is a breeder in Alberta that contacted me-maybe we need to do a road trip to check them out. My darn old Frasert bull is trying to breed every cow on the place right now-crossing the grid road whenever he smells a cow in heat.
I've seen the Weinhandl's website. Lots of horned genetics there, and some scruffy pics, but they'd be worth a good look. A bad picture makes anything look.....well, bad.
Oh yeah, horns, I forgot. That was one big reason I didn't buy any semen to try. It's been a long time since I touched an iron, I really don't want to go back to it.
Yeah I sure don't like the udders I saw-might be an ok terminal cross-I still am partial to baldies. Next year I'll be using an 'A' angus bull and a 'D' red angus lol.
"D" Red Angus bull?????? That just sounds bad anyway you say it. What's goin' on?
I saw some pics of Aubrac cows on other sites that were real peaches. That's one thing about Tarentaise - every female I've ever seen have picture perfect udders and feet.
