[QUOTE="karlie45, post: 465153, member: 5751"] well. there are a lot of things to consider..there are a lot of nice fronted, decent boned, decent haired, heavly muscled bulls out there..so try to narrow it down like this... You said that your heifer is red. Is she red angus? Shorthorn? Cross? The list goes on and on. Are you breeding for a registered, or a cross? What breed do you want to breed her to? Composite for a show, Angus to get black, the list goes on. What do you want to do with this calf? Show it? Maybe try to breed a potential herd Sire? A replacement heifer? 2 years old, and she hasnt had a calf, or she has had 1 calf? Around 2 years, most of ours have a calf on the ground. So, if your 'red' heifer does, what do/dont you like about that calf. If she doesnt, what do/dont you like about your red heifer? Breed her to a bull that makes up what she is missing. and maybe accentuates her strong points Once you figure that out, go 'bull shopping' look in online catalogs and such untill you find a bull that will work for you. Good Luck. [/QUOTE]
