Two do now. :wink:
We've been using 1/4 Sim 3/4 Angus the last 6 years on our cows as adding a simple bit of hybrid vigor into the herd and have been more than happy with the results
Also I've seen every one of those critters on that place, there isn't any simmental in that bunch from my eyes, don't think that family would have let Justin in if he would have tried to run a few. But you can't mistake who's cows are where with that longhorn herd marker he has.

I'm still holding to my opinion. Somehow, a touch of Sim blood has been introduced into that cowherd. You can't mistake those markings whether they be on red or black angus x. If I was Justin and knew there was not a chance of neighbor's cattle mixing, I would be in serious discussion with the people my bulls came from. :wink:
Does it matter to me? Not one iota, I like good cattle regardless of colour.

Well I think 100% of the people on here would assume the same from the picture. If the Red Angus cow was an IB that's where the colour throwback might have come in-now if he was horned he could be a Traveller 722 lol.

i'm not saying he doesn't look the look, what i am saying he doesn't walk the walk. :wink: my herd is a commercial one, so i can't garuntee him to be anything other than a bull i like.
but like i said, i just raised the bull so what do i know...i've learned others know my cow herd better than i do. but all that is fine...

He was so meaty that you exceeded the band with on Photo bucket. At least the pics don't show up today. I like him too but being as I came from a fleckvieh background if he did have a little Sim in him as a commercial guy I wouldn't care. There had to be however some different than Angus genes in the woodpile somewhere.

Justin,
I finally got home where I could actually see the pictures. At "Work" for some reason I can't see anyone's pictures. :???: I like all of them. You look like you have put a lot of work into your place and it sure shows. As far as your breeding program, keep doing it! Hope your bull turns out just like his Momma! :wink:

I "Work" when I get home. The place I go and they pay me while I am there Isn't what I'd call work! :roll: Mostly a lot of waiting for stuff to break and then I fix it. But It is a check for which I am thankful!
