[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1460991, member: 14585"] Ideal milk epd 29 max How did I arrive at 29 milk? I ran AAA search using minimums of doc 10 then [b]HP 10 (Breed Average) $EN -5[/b] and $B 80 I used hp 10 for fertility as I don't want milk so high that they don't breed back on time and $B 80 for growth. Search came back with over 100 bulls and the highest milk epd any had was 29. Including Connealy Reflection 14528330 a grandson of EXT I believe Reflection gets overlooked as to how good a cow maker he is and he's still available at Accelerated Genetics. ced 11 (top 15%) bw .5 accuracy .95 doc 14 (45%) HP 12.4 (top 20%) CEM 14 (top 3%) Milk 26 (30%) $EN -2 (breed average) $W 58 (top 20%) $B 102 (60%) I know he's old genetics with both his sire and dam being born in the last century, but he was and still is a good one.
