[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 359513, member: 4353"] a young bull could be managed to breed 30 heifers, but I am yet to see a bull customer that would be willing to do that. I sold a bull of 15 months to a commercial guy who said that he only wanted the bull for use on 12 heifers. I went to check on the bull and he was turned in with 65 mature cows, after breeding them he was put in a small pasture with another 6 cows and heifers. Needless to say he didn't grow much in the meantime, but he bred them, or at least the vast majority of them. It is often better too miss out on a sale than sell a bull to someone who aren't prepared to look after him as he should. [/QUOTE]
