I have a herd of older Hereford cows and a very nice Black Angus bull. I just brought home a young bull about 8 mos. old. He is a very good looking bull. Great body shape, very healthy, great coat, full low hanging scrotum, etc. I bought this herd from an older neighbor and I cannot determine which cow is his mother. Would the genetics be OK if I kept him and used him to breed some of his 1/2 sisters that I am keeping to breed? Would it be OK for him to breed the old Herefords? Would his black/white faced 1/2 sisters have nice calves if bred by this bull? If I get some new young Hereford heifers or cows would they have good calves with this "baldie" bull? You all have more experience than I do so please tell me what you think.
