[QUOTE="MF135, post: 749873, member: 14057"] I just used the term 'terminal' to either mean a continental breed or a bull w/ high growth epds.(as opposed to maternal quality EPDs) Quality heifers could come from either. I had always heard breeding heifers backed to their sire increased the heterosis; one of the main reasons for line breeding/inbreeding. No? One mature bull should have no problem servicing 40 cows. My cows start calvin early feb and the last one drops mid april. I only have 200acres so I guess 'gettin to em' has never been an issue. [/QUOTE]
