How is Jakes Proud Jazz for calving ease for first calf heifers. The heifers that will be bred to him are a little bit smaller frame cows.
I would still take my chances with JPJ on hiefers over anything with trump or rodeo drive etc. in it! The bull isn't the only one that contributes to birth weight either!!! All of our hiefers here are breed to a JPJ son with no trouble the last two years. The calves are built the way they should be to be calving ease! jmhoDoc said:But , like any other bull he can be all over the board also. I had a friend buy 2 cows in B-Goods dispersal . 1 had a 85 lb hfr & the other had a 120 lb bull. Just saying that it's not a given you are going to have a small calf. The odds are probably pretty good you will, but still watch them close if they are small framed to start with. You never know how the 2 bloodlines are going to match up.
