Whats he like for calving with an arse on him like that?
Surprisingly, he is our easy calving bull! Goes on all the heifers and they pop out little rabbits that grow like stink.
Have his figures somewhere, I’ll get them up.
He’s a great bull, only weakness is a bit of laminitis in front right foot

for the record, I got rid of a three year old bull this year as he was too hard calving on the cows.
Calving ease is now one of my top priorities

Whats he called,if you dont mind me asking? Seems good figures.
He’s called Ashledge Juventus. He’s out of a bull called Spittalton Fletcher.
I’ve bought a new bull this spring from the same herd who is out of a Goldies bull.
He has slightly different figures!
I’m hoping the two will complement each other although I’m going to keep the new one away from the heifers.
