Well you are either using the wrong blue bulls or you should get some cows that are capable of calving more than a rat, which is it ?
Used easy in the past and was told by the rep his son kojak would be fine, the problem with beef bulls there only around for couple of years before you can’t get them and it’s not like the uk farmers stick together like the NZ ones, if LIC had a duff bull NZ farmers would let the semen company know about it and the bull would be gone, I’m looking at Irish DBI but only familiar with the Herefords

Some bulls are around for a lot longer than that.
I would say ask @cattle genie but it don't look like he comes on here now, anyway he seems to have the same bulls for years
