Every two or 3 years, we put a new bull on our cows to insert new genetics, and our old bull is one of the 5 or 6 that gets hauled off to the sale

This is my bull that is on his way out...



And this is his replacement, sired by #6



He just turned 1 and is about to hit his growth spurt. He'll be ready to breed next year.

You can tell I like dark bulls. It tends to throw flash with lighter colored cows.

Also, note that my young bull and #6 look nothing a like color wise. He was bred with a darker colored cow and this was the result. That's the cool thing about longhorns, you never know what you are going to get.
