[QUOTE="Prairiegrass, post: 890071, member: 15700"] Comments on Limelight calves: I used him on small/medium framed Angus/Gelbvieh heifers. Got nice, thick calves. I used him because he was a 6.5 frame bull and I wanted larger framed terminal calves. As it happened, I got two 6-6.5 framed, gorgeous heifers and the rest were short, thick 5-5.5 bulls/heifers. I kept praying that the they would get some height on them prior to sale and they managed to just barley sneak in with the rest of the group. I would not use him again on short, stocky heifers if I was going to sell the calves for terminal animals as for me the Predestined part of his pedigree seemed most prominent. If you're looking to keep heifers (and don't mind the $EN) I think you'll be very happy with the heifer calves. All had good temperaments. [/QUOTE]
