Doorman Fan
November, 24 2017
Old Timer-Doorman was just recognized by Holstein as the leading sire of females that stood in the top 3 at the 2017 National Shows. While he is not a great health improver, he is OK -.03 fertility index, +2.6 PL, 2.53 scc and +feed efficiency. Much like his ¾ brother McCutchen whose son Kingboy is transmitting high type with good health. Those who get their Atwoods, Absolutes, Sids, and Braxtons pregnant, could get Doorman milking daughters pregnant with sexed semen. So maybe Doorman and McCutchen can turn the curve on high type vs acceptable health, Who would have thought that a bull sired by a Planet son from a Ramos dam could sire show ring type??
