This younger steer has grown on me a bunch in the last few weeks. He is out of a good young Monopoly daughter that was all the rage with judging teams that were through here when she was a calf and as a bred. He is square, stout, and cocky but is really gentle and acts good. He is one of the best centered Here I Am’s I’ve seen.
Flush mate to lots 1 and 23 on this sale. Good Here I Am steer that is just a little skinny. He’s big legged, sound, and big pinned. Super hairy as a baby that I think he will be wooly if managed correctly. He had a little rough start, I had to help him into the world with my belt, because I didn’t have anything else with me and the weather was brutal for the next several weeks. Good thing no one was watching when I pulled him, my pants falling off, belt on the calf’s legs, flailing around in the mud. I’m sure it was a sight.
This soft haired, furry steer is built good, really sound on his feet and legs, and out of one of the best cows on the place. He is a little later born, and is just starting to bloom up some. He has a bunch of future. He will be good.
This is a big, stout strapping steer out of Luke and Kristen’s Walks cow. He is sure to feed good and should be able to be ready in early to mid summer if you manage him accordingly. The added bonus to this one is that he loves the mud. He likely grew fond of laying in the mud and snow this spring when his overly protective recip mother kept him out in the snow for the first couple weeks. He will wallow in and sop up any puddle he gets close to.
Oklahoma or New Mexico shorthorn out of Luke and Kristen’s Walks cow. Of course, after looking at the shorthorns this year at Albuquerque he’s a shoe in to classify. This is a sound structured good built calf with a bunch of future. He will be good.
This is certainly the sale “sleeper” in my mind. He is out of a really dynamic young cow. Big paws with impeccable structure. He is a square built steer that is better bellied then some of the Here I Am calves. Super thick fuzzy hair; he was maybe the bushiest one of this whole set as a baby.
This stark white calf has sure gotten better in the last few weeks. He is awesome necked, balances great, and has a lot of true muscle shape down his top and in his quarter and stifle. I think he has a perfect set to his hind leg, really soft pasterned, and flexible on the move. This cow generated a good MAB heifer a couple years ago that won her class at Denver as a prospect.
This goggle eyed baldie is a meat and potatoes kind of calf. Stout, wide, and sound with all the structural integrity in the world. He should be easy feeding, he has a great temperament, and checks all the boxes for a good steer that won’t take a bunch of management to be successful. Another calf from Luke and Kristen.
This big, mature steer gets a lot of things correct. He should be good feeding, he’s sound structed, and good footed. This steer is really nice haired and is long bodied and great fronted. I see him being a great prospect for an earlier county fair.
This star headed steer is out of one of Kaleb’s cows. He is stout, sound, and nice built. These Walks Alone calves are usually really good feeding and have a habit of getting better with time and feed. He will be a really nice county fair steer.
