Mama's Boy vs. King Meyer Posted by Mike on April 20, 2008, 6:25 pm 139.78.3.196 Just wondering if anyone had seen the two and what the pros and cons are of both. Which will be a greater investment for making mamas out of angus cows?  Post a Response

Re: Mama's Boy vs. King Meyer Posted by craig on April 21, 2008, 8:44 am, in reply to "Re: Mama's Boy vs. King Meyer" 216.85.37.130 It appears King Meyer has more bone, hair and mass. Both being out of Hairietta makes either bull a good choice. We heard Mama's Boy came from Nebraska and the breeder sold him as he has another full brother he kept that put a high seller in Guyer's sale. Also heard the breeder of King Meyer has had 6 to pick from and King Meyer was a great one that stood out from day one. There will be more bulls promoted out of Hairietta as she appears to be a can't miss female. Call the breeders of each of her sons and I'm sure they will share the traits each son has to offer your heard.  Post a Response

Re: Mama's Boy vs. King Meyer Posted by Trader on April 22, 2008, 10:42 pm, in reply to "Re: Mama's Boy vs. King Meyer" 69.47.44.244 King looks like the best one so far. Look like he has the hair and bone for steers and heifers.  Post a Response

So many bulls take good pics and never turn out, or stop at stud and they look NOTHING like their picture. I'll go with the one that's working and proven.  Post a Response

Re: Mama's Boy vs. King Meyer Posted by RSC on April 24, 2008, 10:50 am, in reply to "Re: Mama's Boy vs. King Meyer" 4.228.228.161 Spotlight, is the full brother that is a year older than Mommas Boy. Not promoted like the rest but I was told he was the best bull as a calf out of all of them. Seen a few and their good. Spotlight was the sire of the high selling heifer that sold in Guyers sale.  Post a Response
