[QUOTE="machslammer, post: 1007294, member: 20421"] I have the ability to buy one of the following bulls. I have commercial black and BWF cows. Medium to Larger Framed cows ~ 1000-1300 lb cows. No heifers left to breed. I only want to raise beef calves to sell as quickly as possible between the 500-600lb mark. I would like them to achieve this in 5-6 months of age. I do have an available creep feeder for assistance as well, but the mommas do a wonderful job on their own. The cows I have are between 2 and 10 yrs old. I only have 15 at this time(small operation) for the bull to breed. Please feel free to judge all animals based on your opinion. I like learning from experienced people. Thanks in advance for opinions. 1)Hereford: 20 months old. EPD: 2.5 CE, 0.7 BW, 39 WW, 61 YW, 27 MM, 46 M&G. Scrotal Sac was 38.
