THE LINDA COW FAMILY
A true sale feature here! We were awaiting his arrival as soon as his dam was confirmed pregnant with a bull calf and he undoubtedly, has lived up to expectations. The full brother to his dam, Rubys Reflex 258K, was a high seller in the sale two years ago in an offering that sent several bulls to work in breeder programs. The report on the calves by “Reflex” from Zane Wicks have been extremely positive and those reports have raised the bar of expectations for this calf. The dam of this bull is good looking, big centered, stout made with a great udder and feet. This bull is cut out of the same mold. We love his look, his body depth and rib shape, his stoutness and his veracious appetite. In a world where we are asking these steers to feed to a higher weight, one thing that I think is the utmost importance is appetite. When you walk in this pen, he is always the fullest bull, which has also allowed him to be one of the fastest growing, heaviest calves in the group. One thing I always try to tell visitors is that we feed all bulls from a calf crop together. If a bull is heavier conditioned, its because he had the drive and ability to be that way and vice-versa with one that isn’t as far along. This calf reminds me so much of Quadrant in his contemporary group. A few people asked if I had give him preferential treatment as he was a good eater and convertor and was always a half condition score or more better than his contemporaries. I guess at the end of the day what I am trying to say is cattle like this are few and far between and they separate themselves for a reason. Here is a true beef bull ready to benefit the industry.
