[QUOTE="txag, post: 41630, member: 8"] Michelle, Frankie's correct on this issue....not full of poo. epd's can be used to compare animals of the same breed in different herds.....more so than visual appraisal. epd calculations take into account management (when you send in records, you indicate whether the animals were creeped or fed) as well as area of the country. 18 month old bulls losing teeth has nothing to do with epd's. epd's are an estimate of how his [i]progeny[/i] should perform based on his individual data as well as all the data on any ancestors and relatives.
