I am thinking about bringing in a new Hereford bull, and don't know much about Hereford EPD's, mainly interested in CE and BW. I know that with Angus a CED of 7 or higher is considered heifer acceptable, and BW of around 2.5 or lower. I would consider 2 - 4 BW to be moderate for Angus. With Herefords, I am wondering what is considered a heifer acceptable CE, and BW. I am not necessarily looking for a heifer bull but would like to keep the BW moderate. Some of the CED's that I am looking at are, -0.6 CE and 4.2 BW, 1.1 CE, 2.6 BW, and 1.8 CE, 3.2 BW.
