Hello to y'all. I'm new, We have young angus females we are going to breed next spring. All come from dams and sires around +22 for milk. I have been looking @ potenial A.I. sires.
^I have noticed many preformance cattle are higher in milk and low or in $EN. How does high milk effect the herd?
^Does higher milk simply mean bigger calfs? Or just higher a matienance herd?
^I heard that higher milking cows/heifers have a harder time breeding back,is this true? What can be done to make it easier?
I understand EPDs are just a measure for what we MIGHT get from the calves.I would really like some advice on these questions. Thank You, any help is apprieciated.
From the looks of this board it looks like I found the perfect place.
