[QUOTE="HDRider, post: 1222827, member: 17025"] I have a question. Maybe I am reading this wrong.. Why would you expect a young bull to make smaller calves? I see a smaller breed bull on a larger breed heifer throwing smaller calves than might not strain the heifer. And I see a smaller birth weight bull (via EPDs if you can trust EPDs) throwing a smaller calf. I just do not understand the belief that a young bull throws smaller calves. Am I reading this wrong?
