[QUOTE="Herefords.US, post: 685935, member: 3972"] Picture of his sire: [img]http://www.glenviewfarms.net/Royal-06-Paycheck-web.jpg[/img] Picture of his dam on this page: [url]http://www.meadcattle.com/PW_5039_VICTORIA_969.html[/url] ET calf, so no weight data on his performance pedigree, but his carcass data looks good to me. A bull with some age ready to go to work at a good price. He ought to do well on your Brangus cows - and I'm betting you won't mind keeping heifers out of him once you see them. Edited to add: His BW EPD is the average of his sire/dam. If he throws calves like his sire, they may be a little hefty, but your cows should handle them. If he takes after his dam, you'd be able to use him on heifers. It would help to know what his actual BW was, so you'd have a better feel for what he might do. But being an ET calf throws more variables into it. I'd bet that you'd not have to worry about his heifers having calving problems unless you stacked another very high BW bull on top of them.
