[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3310255, member: 7900"] This calls for a tale of a young black bull. With regards to having a bull for springer heifers, my Father-in-law was always told to buy a "scrubby black bull" to put with his springer Herefords. Well, Father-in-law could NEVER buy anything "scrubby," so he bought a nice Angus bull and we put them with the heifers. That year, we lost a lot of calves and a few of the heifers because the calves came so big. So, Father-in-law sold the bull to my brother-in-law (my sister's husband) and he put them out with his mature cows. Later on, brother-in-law kept kidding us that we sold him a bum bull because they NEVER saw him "servicing" any of the cows. That next Spring, about 95% of his cows calved some black baldies. When he told me the results, I told him that the bull wasn't dumb. Being a black bull, it was easy to sneak up on the cows in the dark. [/QUOTE]
