[QUOTE="elkwc, post: 1577657, member: 22295"] Guess we are fortunate that we have a heifer pasture where we can keep them separate with no extra management. We also have good fences and keep them maintained. If we get one that won't stay home he gets a one way road trip. Most breeders in this area only use CE heifer bulls on heifers. They use a bull with a BW above 85# on mature cows.We retain replacements from these bulls and they make excellent cows. So I wouldn't call them terminal sires. If those CE, light muscled, chicken boned Barbies work for you then power to you. They don't work here. Their progeny leave too much money on the table. [/QUOTE]
