[QUOTE="BRG, post: 369944, member: 2397"] That sounds like it should be the best, but from what I have seen is if you have a Pharo type small frame 3 cow and put a big stout terminal bigger framed bull on them, you will have cattle that range in 3 different frames scores. Not much for uniformity. As far as the scrotal size, he is right to an extent, the bigger more fat bulls will have more scrotal due to excess fat, but not that much. Our vet won't even test a bull if he is a 30 or less. I just managed a sale and his bulls were not fed much and in turn were green and weighed on averaged 850 to 900 lbs. They were full yearlings and the scrotal measurements on them were on average 35, with the smallest being 32 and the largest being 40. The smallest bull weighed 776 lbs and the largest was 1225 lbs. I don't agree with everything he says, but he does make you think, and does have SOME good ideas. Congrats to him on a great sale. He has a niche and it works great for him. [/QUOTE]
