Re: Hello from MD/PA
Thanks, Durham and Damion have both been great cows for our herd as they have for many others. Our first bull in a stud is out of the Durham Rubin cow, he is a pronto son at accelerated. I have the link to his proof posted below
http://www.accelgen.com/htm/sire_pages/014HO06054.html
The Durham now has 190,000 LT; we lost the Rubens dam this past summer shortly after she calved (she was close to 170,000 LT). Unfortunately the Durham was not the most cooperative flush cow, and has only had a few ET daughters (all her natural calvings have been bulls). We are most excited about a VG shottle 2yr old that has a 353 of 34,000 lbs. She has been a better flush cow making about a dozen each sexed Palermo and Colt-P embryos.

Re: Hello from MD/PA
We have one milking, she is an 83 pt 2yr old. Unfortunately he threw a number of bulls before he threw us heifers so our next ones aren't due till spring. At the county show, the milking pod rae was pulled out as HHM Jr Champion as a summer yearling and our younger two showed as spring calves placing first and second in a class of about 9 calves.
