We will probably keep him for at least a couple of years and if we decide to keep his daughters at any stage, we will have to look at getting a different bull when they are old enough to breed. Fortunately there are a few people around our area that keep Brafords, so its easy enough to swap the bulls around.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12874273438983052621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027191706980748713.post-31973886256999422942012-12-05T21:18:54.476+10:002012-12-05T21:18:54.476+10:00Wow Maus is huge.

Maus looks like a good specimen to have in your new line. Do you think you will bring in another bull to replace Maus at some point?<br /><br />Not sure what it's like for cows, but I know in poultry there are a lot of sick chicken stock around because of a lot of inbreeding. I try not to keep the same rooster after he's sired 2 generations, and then it's onto a new rooster outside the gene pool.Chris https://www.blogger.com/profile/13715819899708384147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027191706980748713.post-23613106092631696232012-12-05T01:11:21.813+10:002012-12-05T01:11:21.813+10:00He is a handsome fellow and looks like he will pas...He is a handsome fellow and looks like he will pass on those gentics and give you some nice calfs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027191706980748713.post-59652750168996136982012-12-05T00:50:16.448+10:002012-12-05T00:50:16.448+10:00He looks impressive!He looks impressive!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027191706980748713.post-44503402414602338542012-12-04T19:28:56.869+10:002012-12-04T19:28:56.869+10:00Hahahaha!

I imagine that I'm a bit too far away for it anyway but have to say that Neem is amazing! Not only is is a good insect deterrent but it's also good for treating eczema, psoriasis, and other skin issues. In fact I posted about making a cream from it earlier this summer.<br /><br />Congratulations to the winner...I'm sure the litre will come in handy :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03861108457109878599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027191706980748713.post-69476892262847870822012-12-04T08:45:00.354+10:002012-12-04T08:45:00.354+10:00Love your new bull, Maus, very deserving of much r...Love your new bull, Maus, very deserving of much respect.... we have a 4yo Charolais bull, Curly, who is very quiet and compliant but big and I am very careful of him and his space. He only has 8 girls but seems content. Love to see dogs and chooks getting along together.
