[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1515454, member: 24027"] My heifers are pelvic measured and bred to a low birthweight calving ease bull. But that's no guarantee! Also depends on their nutrition, lineage, age, weight, time of year, whether it's a bull calf, etc. And there's always one that throws a whopper; some of 'em just grow big calves. That said, the majority of my heifers calve just fine and why would I risk such an investment without thoroughly researching the bull? To the OP: a small bull doesn't mean calving ease. And while I've never AI'd, if you only have the one heifer I agree that would most likely be your best option. [/QUOTE]
