Tips on Using Yearling Bulls
Yearling bulls have many advantages: fresher genetics, better selection, etc.
Studies have shown bulls used as yearlings sire more calves in their lifetime
than bulls held until they are two. Also, buyers who manage them well can
often re-sell them as three- or four-year-olds and recover their purchase price.
A few tips from our experience:
1. If your group has too many cows or heifers for one yearling bull (we suggest
10-15), don’t put all the bulls out at the start of the season. If you turn them
all out at once, they are likely to all lose weight and perhaps all go temporar-
ily sterile at the same time. If you have two bulls, put one in for two weeks,
then pull him and turn out the other one. The forced rest and a little feed and
fly control will make him stronger. Using the every two week rotation, if one
bull is a stronger breeder, he will always be covering what the other bull
missed. Furthermore, running multiple bulls in the Midwest often results in
broken penises; it’s just different out West where the pastures are so much
larger.
2. A yearling bull should not be out in a Missouri pasture from mid-July through
August. Bulls generally shed their first two incisors about 18-20 months of
age. That combined with fescue endophyte and heat stress could cause the
bull to get so nutritionally stressed that it will take a long time to get him back
in shape.
Remember that no EPD is an absolute. It simply allows you to compare ge-
netic differences in sires. As an example, if you were to use a high accuracy
+30 WW EPD sire in your herd, and the weaning weights average 550 pounds,
then you could expect a high accuracy +40 WW EPD sire to sire calves aver-
aging 560 pounds, if used in exactly the same situation. A sire with a +6 BW
EPD should sire calves averaging 4 pounds heavier at birth than a sire with a
+2 BW EPD.
