per said:Well I like him so if you want out and can reconfigure with red pigmentation I would be interested. 8)
Soapweed said:Nice bull, RSL. I like him for his looks and his color. :wink:
He was raised ranchy but I know they trim them up and feed them a bit for the sale. I am sure he will slim down prior to the end of July.Big Muddy rancher said:I like the looks of the bull and it's hard to tell from his picture but was he raised with a creep feeder? He seems to have quite a bit of condition for this time of year.
I guess he could have been almost 3 months now.

I agree with Soapweed.........and I like the In Focus in his pedigree.
I don't know anything about 'Expidition', so what is that pedigree?

The expedition bull is Stevenson Expedition out of an EXT son (sorry NR) and Traveller 1148 on the top side, and beefland intermediate (Hoff genetics) and Scotch cap on the dam side.
His US Reg # is 13514608

Interesting that they crossed some rather extreme cattle with some
rather moderate cattle. Remember, you get one like the sire, one like
the dam, and one in the middle. Good luck with him!

FH - I am not really concerned as he is far enough down the pedigree from these, that his parents profile matches fairly well. The exercise you do balancing pedigrees is one I do on every bull I am interested in as well. The closer up cattle in the pedigree are pretty consistent.
I like the way you think about the process. We actually eliminated a ton of bulls with good #s because of the fact their pedigree was inconsistent in the short generations. I would like to come and see your cows in person one day.Faster horses said:RSL said:Faster horses said:Interesting that they crossed some rather extreme cattle with some

That works for me. I do like the bull. As I said, "good luck with him",
and I sincerely mean that. I'm betting he'll give you some nice calves.
