[QUOTE="76 Bar, post: 1617226, member: 18664"] ValleyView...there is a rule of thumb that a young bull in good condition and sans a tough environment/mismanagement/illness should be able to succesfully cover X number of females per his age in months, e.g. in your case 16 months at turn out = 16 females so obviously not overworked. Along with the good advice you've received thus far and providing he's not suffering from a yet undiagnosed debilitating ailment is his genetic propensity for maintaining condition, aka "fleshing ease". This is dependent on his breeder's genetic & mgt priorities. I wish you well with your bull. [/QUOTE]
