Breeding age question

DB · Nov 20, 2016

I am sure that everyone is different but I was wondering on average at what age can a young bull breed? I had one that was missed running with a couple heifers he is 6 months. Heifers are a month or 2 older than him. Thanks

Well it depends on the breed. Certain breeds such as Angus mature a little faster, but I've always heard that they can usually breed around a year if not a few months after they turn a year.
Hope this helps.

7-8 months is common

Had some of ours pass semen evaluations at 9 months of age with flying colors, meaning they had been fertile a long time. I would lute.
