[QUOTE="HOSS, post: 945573, member: 1863"] Prariegrass, I have used MIF in my A.I. program on heifers. All took on their first service. I retained 2 heifers from that batch and they now have 5 month old heifers at their side (A.I. sired by a balancer bull). So far I couldn't ask for better females. They have retained their condition really well for first time calvers even when the drought conditions had my pastures looking like a brown carpet. So far their feet and legs appear to be very sound. They are very docile and easy to work with. The MIF sired calves were born in the mid 60's on BW and really grew off well for heifers weaning just above 600 lbs. I would definetly use MIF again and I might on my Gelbvieh cows to make some dandy balancers. Not being familiar with all of the angus epd numbers I can't really explain the HP issue. [/QUOTE]
