[QUOTE="Ebenezer, post: 1749386, member: 24565"] Dr. Bonsma mentioned such. Some bulls can tend to produce dead calves in heifers. There is no way to know ahead. I used an old bull via AI a few years ago and his claim was "heifer bull". Of the 3 heifers that bred, all three had normal dead calves. I looked back to see what Dr. Bonsma wrote and he said to only breed a bull like this to a mature cow. I bred him to a cow last month so I hope to see a live calf in 2023. [/QUOTE]
