[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 13738"] For most traits the higher the number (within reason) is better, the only exception for sure would be BW. Here goes, from the fall summary: CE +3.2 BW +3.5 WW +36.6 YW +60 MILK +8 CW +0.1 PRC +.00 MARB +.00, I don't know what the one is for MCE. CE is Calving ease, how easy this bulls calves are born. MCE is maternal calving ease, how easy this bulls daughters calve. MWW maternal weaning weight, how this bulls daughters calves wean.
