Josh (Bullpen) Should be able to get you some better info on these questions... we've had one so far out of a SimAngus cow. About a 75 lb heifer with as much vigor as I've ever seen and seems to be growing really well. No issues with birthing.

I've only seen 2. One heifer, a little bigger probably about 90 or so. Came easy, really neat heifer. Second was a beast, never made it.

Just a bad experience that's all. Sounds like the bull has been doing very well for Josh n his customers. He has way more experience with him. Give him a call.

Had a heifers out of a Monopoly cow probably 60# nursed within 30 minutes growing well.  I'm going to use him again this year on an I-80 heatwave cow.

We’ve had a few calves out of him including a bull out of a first calf maternal perfection heifer and we didn’t have any issues out of any of them. The bull out of the first calf heifer weighed 60 and is a stout with a ton of bone and the calves out of the older cows averaged 75. I’ll try and get pics later. They are all taking off and doing really well.
