Flush advice regarding Ja-Bob Jordan Red
Does anyone could tell me more about this bull? What are his strengths and his weakness? What about his family and his breeder?
I would like to use him on an Emerson RC x Factor RC EX90 x Prelude VG85 for some flushings. Do you think it will work?

Depends on how dairy the Emerson is. Jordan makes thicker strong cows with some slope to the rump. He is a natural cross on Rubens daughters.

Re: Ja-Bob Jordan Red
The Emerson is a very nice balanced 2yrs old, with excellent Udder, Feet and Legs, she needs some more body depth even if she is the most dairy cow I saw.
She is Emerson from my bull dam and looks similar to this
but with better udder, feet and legs and a thicker neck.
Edit:
I would lik to use Jordan to get some red offsprings and she is AB for K-Caseine so anyway the worst I could get is a RC with AB K-caseine, the better a Red BB K-caseine

Re: Ja-Bob Jordan Red
Could make some valuable calves with the BB KC and Red. I would just worry about style but other than that it would be ok.

Re: Ja-Bob Jordan Red
I got one jordan red about 8 months old it is in a pen with Outside's Integrity's and Lucente's and it certainly got as much body as the others but not quite the stretch and sharpness. What about Markwell Kite ? i know he only RC but he does apparently throw reds out of black and whites .My Kite milking heifer is probably my best for the year, really stretchy and stylish .

Is he RED and BB K-c? NO?
So now you know why I would not use him.

Re: Ja-Bob Jordan Red
Just curious what is Marmax's Kappa Caseine? Where do you find that kind of info? Accelerated is the only US stud that publicizes their Kappa Caseine tests with their proofs.

Re: Ja-Bob Jordan Red
We have around 5 Jordan heifers and all are from sharp, angular, dairy cows, so the heifers are also sharp and fancy, we really like them. If used right this bull can really work well.

Re: Flush advice regarding Ja-Bob Jordan Red
I've got my stormatic heifer in calf to ja-bob. She's clean and strechy with good L&F; excellent family for udders.
Is this a good cross?
