Many do not AI to the popular bulls due to the high price of semen, and the even higher price of female sexed semen. There is good news. Here at Dickinson Cattle Co prices are friendly for the entry level producer and the serious established competitors. Use 'one owner' female semen and assure the herd of almost a 100% heifer calf crop. Everyone needs to make a profit. Consider these 3 well known sires.
JAM BOX--Conventional semen $100, female $200.
Sire: Drop Box, dam Jamaka Rose by Jamakizm.
JAM BOX is the most of everything aggressive producers have strived for from the start of registrations. He is a line bred Jamakizm, plus Tuff and Over Kill. Jamakizm is the best proven banding on Tuff genetics that has worked profitably over and over. Jam Box is a 4 times Horn Showcase Triple Crown winner of the 2019 age bracket. Use him for dark chocolate brindle colors, height, length, over 100" horn T2T, gain and surprisingly monumental progeny. He is a big-time bull. https://www.texaslonghorn.com/inventory/index.cfm?con=id&IDNo=15223&BreedCode=T&Category=Reference_Sire
SHOWMAN--conventional semen $100, female $150.
Sire: Spokesman, dam: Dance All Night by Jet Black Chex.
SHOWMAN is a special tool. He is the first homozygous black sire DCC has offered in frozen semen. His black genetics come naturally as he is 77 times line bred, back massed Don Quixote, the source of all great black in the Texas Longhorn breed. Showman's first calves are beautiful black speckled. Every calf will be black based in color. Recommended on light or dirt-solid colored cows with no white; get black or black speckled every time with show/futurity conformation. https://www.texaslonghorn.com/inventory/index.cfm?con=id&IDNo=15546&BreedCode=T&Category=Reference_Sire
IRON SPAN --conventional semen $75, female semen $150.
Sire: Drag Iron, dam: Obvious Top by Top Caliber.
IRON SPAN - the top Drag Iron son, ever. His dam, one of DCC's most twist-horned cows, also produced Non Stop. He has been shown at halter twice winning ORVTLA Grand Champion All Age Bull and also ITLA 2017 Jr Grand Champion Bull at the Championship show. Horns projected at 96" currently with lost tip calculation. He sires correct progeny, dark mahogany spotÂ
colors and will correct high forward horn spreads.
