[QUOTE="cowpunk'd, post: 773757, member: 1265"] Thanks for all the replies. The Dam of this heifer was sired by Wilmo Right Time, a Black Angus. The heifer was sired by a registered bull, but I have lost the straw and my vet doesn't keep records. The heifer was not injured at all from the hard pull and is cycling allready, I figure if I have her a.i'd with a calving ease bull the vet can evaluate her at the same time. The big bull calf is catching up in size with a Red Angus sired calf born 5 weeks before him (sired by Red Champlain Serenade out of 8 yr old cow). You are right, Oldtimer - I could have done more research into the bulls e.p.d's, he is not registered but he came from registered stock. I'll admit I assumed he would sire small calves because I bought him as a yearling from a lady who kept and managed a bull and about 15 cows by herself, while keeping a regular job, and she didn't really seem to know that much about cattle. I assumed anything needing to be pulled wouldn't have gotten born at all. [/QUOTE]
