Judge these bulls

[Keren]

A theoretical exercise . . .

If you had these two bulls and you could only keep one, sell the other, which would it be, and why? Both from the same calf crop, both have calves on the ground, the second bull is about 50kg heavier than the first.

Bull # 1

Bull # 2

I'd keep the second one, The first one has demon eyes!

Weigh the calves they've produced. If you're selling pounds, the bull that sired the heavier calves should be the keeper.

 

[ALACOWMAN]

neither one too shabby..i like the thickness of the first one he's deep

 

[3waycross]

Like em both second one more.

Nice Bulls. I have 4 charlais cross heifers and am thinking about going more that way all the time.

 

[fourstates]

Those are both good looking bulls. Keep them both.

 

[KNERSIE]

[funky 4-Her]

The second bull sure is a showy type but have to say I like the thickness and masculinity of the first one.
Both really nice bulls.
How was their calving performance ?

Yes well they are both fine looking bulls but If you must get rid of one! I would say the first one! Only by looking at the PICS the first one is older looking am I rite. Has the second one been performing well for you?
K&G cattle :Texas

 

[Keren]

The second bull is one month older than the first.

For all those people who like them both and would keep both of them . . .

If you ABSOLUTELY HAD TO get rid of one bull, which would it be and why?

 

[ALX.]

If you are saying the calves are equal I like #2 for his length and more athletic appearance.

 

[OK Jeanne]

We can't see their feet, nor the testicles of the first one--
but I like the shape of the first one better.

this is on apperance only.... but the first one is what i would want to see in my calves the second one not deep enough from the shoulder to hip.

It's all guess work. I don't believe anyone can tell by just the photos.
