Alias on a heifer, don't know his birthweight, but it would probably throw an okay calf. I like Purple Inferno a lot but, again I don't know his birthweight. Why would you use a midget bull like Cherry Bomb on a small heifer? You would get a midget calf.

The most important thing in breeding a heifers is calving ease. I can't stand it when a person suggests a bull and does not know anything about the birthweight and calving ease associated with it. There have been so many heifers ruined b/c they are going for the homerun the first year. Breed them to proven calving ease bulls and play with the club calf thing after that.
