I feel like you should be fine with this bull. Being 900 pounds he should be just fine breeding cows here and there. Like you said...He is just a fill in until you find the one you really want. Mongrel or not if you have good cows then the calves should be good calves. I got my family back in the cows business with a bottle fed heifer and about a 650-700 pound bull calf that got into a neighbors pasture when we sold out a few years ago. He bred a full grown cow about a month after we got him so he might have weighed 750 pounds by then. Just using him as a fill in will be fine. Really sounds like a good plan to save you some time to find the exact bull you want and to get your money in order. You never know....you may like what he grows in to and like how his calves grow and you may keep him a while. We kept ours about a year and would have kept him longer if he hadn't of been crazy. Then you save a lot of money by not buying a $3000 or more bull.
What color is this bull if you don't mind me asking?
