    Lovely calf.
    What do you think if STQ compared to other BB Bulls?

    Great to bring shape and muscle, even to plain cows. Maybe not the growthiest though.

    My first foray into PB Limousin breeding. Disappointed with him when he was a calf, but he has grown away fine since. Very quiet and mad for action. Only ever got grass except for a Kg or so of meal in the first winter.
    NICE BULL, what's that in the field behind him?

    Just reed growing in the trenches. The field where he is standing is under high level tide level, so the water table is very high. If it weren't for a bank about 100m to the left very high level tide would come in over his head.

    I always found him no bother, but wouldn't use him on heifers.

    Hard to judge from a photo but I would see the first fella is weighing 480 and the second is 520

    Haven't been to the mart for a few weeks so not sure how they'll go price wise

    Let us know how they go!!
