spring 08 Bulls for Sale




These Spring 08 bulls are enjoying our Fescue / Lespedeza haylage last winter . No feed bunks full of corn - just forages. Genestar no longer gives Tenderness stars - since testing 56 markers rather than 3 - so 112 stars would be very unhandy. I have actual MVP data if needed, but % rank in Angus Breed is probably just as usefull for most. Just a brief description for you here, listed in order of wean ratio:
560U #16214469 Angus Number - top ratio bull of the group at 115 wean ratio, linebred bull going back to 4 generations of cows we have owned and kept daughters from and small wonder when you see this bull. a little more hair, but a not enough to cause problems in fescue country.
221U #16217458 Angus Number - a linebred on Dam side out of a cow from Octoraro Angus - where Fabron 454 came from. Linebreeding the cow side might be as important as sire side! Top 10% for Tenderness and slick hair. Have his full brother on the cow now - wasn't going to sell, but will consider selling since his replacement is on the ground.
151U #16217473 a direct Fabron 454 son out of a Grazier cow and going back even further to the Angus Acres Tex cow we enjoyed so long. Super pedigree here. Top 20% on Tenderness DNA test
792U #16217471 another linebred Fabron 454 grandson going back to some of our Shoshone cows on the bottom side as well as the top side. Top 20% for Tenderness dna test
170U #16217464 a good looking bull that always cathes your eye. Linebred bull again going back to several generations of cows from our Shoshone and Grazier lines we have used for years. Top 10% for tenderness. Is being used on our summer calving cows this year.
834U #16217472 a maternal brother to the 834T we kept to use as a yearling, but is now sold. Combining the Shoshone 99-2318 on dam side and Shoshone 107-6374 cow on top side while being linebred to Fabron 454 . Dam is the slickest hair cow on farm, and he is same hair coat.
All the linebred bulls are half bro- half sister matings.
