[QUOTE="bandit80, post: 619429, member: 7956"] By saying you are wanting to get some polled genetics into your herd, I assume that means you wish to retain heifers out of this 1407 son. I have experienced some 1407 sons as Balancers in the Gelbvieh breed. I have not heard of any calving problems with 1407 or his sons, but you will most definitely want to watch out for udder quality in any female progeny, and I believe it was Angus in Texas who said you also need to watch for rear feet/leg structure as well. It might depend on the udder quality of the dam of this 1407 son. If she is OK, he may pass that trait on down. I for one would never give up anything in udder quality on replacement females. Maybe some of the Angus breeders on board might be able to give you some other suggestions. [/QUOTE]
