What does it mean when it
Shows CED 10
Then actual 1

 

[dun]

As far as I can tell has a 10 for CED (direct calving ease, that would be his calves) in the top 30% of the breed for that trait. But that he was a 1 which was his birth. That;s one of those that you look back at his ancestors and see what kind of mating they did to get the scky high CED. Usaully that means hey bred a hard calver to an ultra easy calver.

1=unassisted birth
This was his actual birth.

Thanks
Would you use him on heifers ?

I can't read it even when I enlarged it.
What breed are you talking about and the heifers of what breed?

 

[Cross-7]

Limflex bull
Angus heifers

I would use him with no worries , he weighed 68 lb at birth so should be no problem calving.

I would say he is a heifer safe.
