Absolutely!

for those confused a heifer bull is a smaller and younger bull used for 1st time breeding heifers. It is a common ranch term. The younger girls don't need a heavy bull on them. Heifer bulls are often times purchased with genetics that show lower birth weight for ease of calving

A heifer bull is not just a younger smaller bull. It is also a bull that genetically show cause a smaller birth calf to be born. A smaller younger bull that " throws" 90-100+ lb calves is a cow killer for heifers and some aged cows. When I milked a " proven" young bull came that was supposed to be a high producing calving easy bull the fist 2 cows I used him on almost died because of massive calves. I think it took 1 1/2 calving seasons ,about 14 months for him to be killed for beef

He sure is a looker! Can't wait to see the babies!

Quite a few Angus are starting to have a mean side and owners are outcrossing to herfords. My uncle tried browns, charleighs(sp), and Angus besides his herfords. He stayed with herfords because they were the nicest, easygoing and had meat about as good as the Angus.

Again, GREAT content Erin. I really enjoy the way you take time to thoroughly explain your thought process in moving your operation forward. Great channel!!

I understand wanting to grow the herd, but around here #600 heifers are going for $2.80 a pound, I would take the cash on the small ones. Great video, thanks!

Hi, been watching the channel for a long time. If you are looking for a new brand I would highly recommend Z tags, more in specific Z1. We use them on our farm and they are probably the only tags that will last the animals lifetime. They are able to wrote on the back as well.

Great Video... I like how you explain and go through everything and what your wanting to do... So many KZreadrs miss that part but you nailed... Looking forward to next calving season....

Ferguson is a handsome lad! Hopefully #6 will calm down some between now and calving.

Best tags are Ritchie tags they come in 3 sizes. They come in lots of colors and you can get both sides engraved. They never fade ! !!! Really never fade guaranteed.

Your new bull, Ferguson seems pretty calm, that's a good thing. Back in the 60's, dad used a Hereford to breed with his Angus cows, threw some nice calves, but couldn't keep him, he had horns and gotten aggressive. Good luck with your plan, sounds like a good one, have a nice day, Thanks!
