[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1847904, member: 24816"] We are looking currently. Looked at some Angus bulls Monday and today, EPD’s were not even a consideration for me. These were bulls that are by current lines and I’m sure the numbers are there. At this point I’ve gone back to visual appraisal as far as selection, especially feet and legs and sheath.That said, I’m going to be looking at Herefords soon, and possibly Charolais. I’m a little more concerned with numbers just as another tool in selection for other breeds besides Angus. With Herefords I want at least a guess about milk and growth and with Charolais birthweight CE and milk, in addition to what the bulls frames and structures are. [/QUOTE]
