    Sounds like a good plan. Sim and Charolais cross well im my opinion!
    Nice cut of a Blue calf that.

    I had a cow calf to AZL there last week. Only 283 days gestation. Very small bull calf though. He doesn't look like much at the moment, but time will tell.

    I think some cows just don't cross well to BB. She is a black , half bred LIM. She always had a good Lim calf.

    Serious calf!
    Are you sure you did not let him go a few weeks (months!) before you tagged him :-)
    We had an AZL last week off an old Limousin cow - same colour as your fella. Will not turn out as good but a very good calf all the same.
    Went with AZL as we just found with BYU gone, EPI (sigh) long gone and some of the others BBs out there with massive calving difficulty figures, that he was the next best. Another cow has her time up to to AZL so will see what the she brings, fingers crossed.

    Leg Wax mentioned that Sultan was a very good bull so will be interested to hear what he says about him.
