[QUOTE="birdog, post: 368200, member: 514"] Is anyone on here familiar with brangus EPDs? I bought a registered 4 yr old brangus cow a couple of weeks ago heavy bred. I cross the brangus with a beefmaster bull so I wasn't interested in the calf necessarily. I got the papers on the cow and checked the breeding and it looks like she is bred to a pretty good bull. If she has a bull calf I was considering growing him out and using him on the beefmaster x brangus heifers that I've retained. Here are the EPDs and actuals for the bull: BW: 74 lbs AWW: 687 lbs AYW: 1281 365 SC: 37.3 cm REA: 15.4 sq in %IMF: 4.6 FT: .27 [list=] BW 4.1 WW 43.8 Rank 3% YW 68.8 Rank 3% Milk 3.7 TM 25.6 Rank 20% SC 1 Rank 15% REA 0.62 Rank 10% %IMF 0.13 Rank 10% FT 0.001 What do you think?[/list] [/QUOTE]
