[QUOTE="simme, post: 1799380, member: 40418"] As far as pedigree, there are plenty of recognizable bulls in the pedigree. And some angus ones back 3 to 4 generations. Traveler, some Ohlde lines, Champion Hill. Overall, not a calving ease pedigree. The % row under the epd's and the accuracies show the numbers relative to all simmentals in the database. Low numbers are near the top of the breed. High numbers are near the bottom. A % of 20 means top 20% of breed for the trait. A % of 80 means bottom 20% for the trait. The bull has been dna tested and the epd's enhanced based on the dna. Should be more accurate epd's due to the dna. The craigslist ad has a second picture looking straight on the bull from the front. Looks to me that he is a little wide in the shoulders. Birth weight, epd for CE and BW, and wider shoulders would say to me to be cautious on what he would be bred to.
