[QUOTE="Alpine Cattleman, post: 1012779, member: 17999"] This is a progesterone issue. A bull calf like a heifer has progesterone it promotes early growth in both animals. When a bull is steered it gets rid of the progesterone and testosterone. Since progesterone promotes growth in young calves it is giving back in the form of implants. I personally wouldn't give it to heifers especially ones meant to be bred but to each his own [/QUOTE]
