    synchronizing heifers before bull turn out?

    If you are going through all that trouble it may be worth getting him collected and AIing the commercial heifers. It seems to me like that may be less work if you had someone to do it and the goal was to get a significant group bred to him.

    CCR Boulder

    He weighed 65# or your assuming about 65# ? The assuming part is why us seedstock guys that weigh every calf for generations can't talk the assuming people into buying bulls that weigh over 100# at birth even tho it happens daily I have found that without actually weighing you can be way off...

    Basin Yuma daughters?

    I have 5 of them we just AIed. To this point I am happy with them, they look like a pretty sound, even set of heifers. Also sold a couple sons this spring Obviously given his age we don't have anything in production out of him yet but his calves have been very even birth weight both years.
