I have a really nice set of polled hereford heifers -- they're ET calves out of Reload and World Class. I'm trying to decide what to breed them to and have had a hard time finding a bull that just jumps out at me as the one I should use. I'm looking for a bull with low birthweight (of course) and good pigmentation -- at least some pigment on both eyes and minimal white everywhere else. I'm leaning toward BOYD WORLDWIDE 9050 ET at http://genex.crinet.com/beef/index.php?action=DETAIL&code=1HP00831&lang=EN. This fella seems to be everything that I'm looking for, but I'm a little concerned that his numbers may not be very realistic as he's only a calf and so this is the first breeding season for him. What do you guys think? Any suggestions for other bulls I should look at?
