I am looking to purchase a new bull to breed heifers. I have a good grasp on what BW EPD to look for (~1.5 or less). What about CED (Calving Ease Direct) should I put more or less emphasis on CED vs BW. What is the min CED number to look for , is it 8 higher/lower? I have seen some good looking pedigrees for what we want to do with BW of 2.7 and a CED of 8 (which is pretty good). Would that calf work? Frankie, anybody help.
