angus bull 15108476 please look at his epds and give me your thought good or bad.i will be using him on comerical cows mainly and plan to keep replacment heifers. :cboy:

his birth epd is higher than his sire or dam, this usually means his actual birth weight was high. Do you know what he actually weighed?

I would not use him on heifers.

I wouldn't use him on heifers, but he would probably work on commercial cows. His growth EPDs are good. I'd guess he's a pretty framey bull? Will his heifers be too big for your management?

his birth weight was 84# and he is a thick frame bull. i think his heifers out of my salerxlonghorn and angusxlonghorn cross cows will put them right where i want them. 1000 to 1200# cows . time will tell. thanks for all your replys :cboy:
