[QUOTE="dun, post: 1107680, member: 34"] Nope, the vet does. Whne I breed the I do a kind of rough gess by if I can extend my fingers as wide as possible and not touch the sides they should be ok. One catch is there is always the exceptions. Friends of ours used one particular bull and when they did the pelvic on his daughters the measurments were OK. Whne they started calvin ggthe had to do C-sections. It seems that for some obscure reason the pelvis wasn;t all that much bigger at calving as it had been at yearling. That made me wonder if maybe they had screwed up when they did the first measurement, they did it themselves after having purchased a pelvimeter.
