opinions on 2 Lowline bulls pleae

Hi Trisha,
I measured FindonR before he went into quarantine & he was 44ins (112cm) at the hip. His father, Findon is 117cm at the hip & his dam, Daphne is about 114cm. (Sorry I haven't converted these heights). As FindonR was only 20 months old when he left here he still had a lot of growing to do but I would expect him to be a little bit shorter than his sire but taller than his dam. His full brother, Guinness is as tall as his sire Findon, but is a different style of bull. I had a few Jerseys years ago & always put my Lowline bulls over then. They had lovely small calves that grew very quickly on the Jersey milk. I kept some of the Lowline/Jersey heifers & bred them with Lowlines for a few years until I had too many animals & had to sell all my cross breds during the drought.

Here's the bull I ended up using.

I got to see this guy in person. Turns out their farm is only about 5 miles from me! FindonR now measures 51 inches which is much bigger that I want. Quartermaster is the right size, but this guy is really fantastic. I also LOVE the red...always have. I had convinced myself that black is what I had to have because of the market, but I direct market my beef. So, any color is basically fine. I also like the heat tolerance with the reds since we will be in a very hot climate soon.
Now I am anxiously waiting to see if she took and then the long wait begins LOL
