I sold this bull last year as a 14 month old under the impression that he was going to be used on 15 heifers. Instead the new owner turned him out with 65 cows for six weeks, then took him to another 7 cows. After that he was sent to a neighbour to breed 12 heifers.
He is now 25 months old, has 65+ calves on the ground, has been in the breeding pasture since 1 August with 70 cows, he is on decent pasture, but the herd gets no supplement at all. He himself has never seen grain in his life.
The cows in the background are mostly 3/4 hereford 1/4 jersey. That makes the calves mostly 7/8 hereford.
