[QUOTE="S.R.R., post: 333399, member: 1442"] Great post Doc Harris! I do want to point out one thing about the quote "Using today's bulls, what is that increased Bull size going to do to your cow herd size?? . . in calves that are born in 2008 and producing their own calves in 2011!" The above type of bull is what I use as a terminal bull. I breed the cows I want replacements out of with a maternal bull that way I do not run into the problem of an increasing herd size. This also gives me the opportunity to go all out with the traits/EPDs I want from each bull. I like what the Aubrac Cattle bring to the table. I have been a fan of the Piedmontese which seem to have similar traits. Do you know what kind of calving issues the Aubrac,s have if any? [/QUOTE]
