Hi all,
Please provide your comments/criticism of this young fella. He's 14 months old and was purchased as a calf with his mother when he was 5 1/2 months old.
Thanks!

He looks to be a bit block shouldered to me. Not the type of bull I would use on heifers. Just my opinion and it means nothing to others.
I have to agree. They are fairly good bulls but Backhoe he is a little i guess you could say "coarse shouldered" that definitely could cause some calving problems. Especially on heifers.

Cheers!
