[QUOTE="John SD, post: 1098169, member: 14713"] I've always done the opposite. :P Buy a yearling bull with good BW EPDs and use him on heifers until he is about 4. Then use him on cows for a couple more years if I can still stand to have him around that long. My reason for moving the bull from heifers to older cows in that order, is that some of the heifers to breed are his own daughters. I would not say a 4 yr old bull is "too big" for most heifers. If he is alone with the heifers with no other competing bulls, a mature bull seems to have fairly decent manners with the young ladies. Decent manners for a bull, that is! :lol: :lol: :lol: [/QUOTE]
