    well i had a baby last year and couldnt get anybody to milk my cows and i got someone a few days before i went to hospital but his heat detection wasnt great so bought the bull , also i got a whopper of an ai bill there in april this year and let bull straight out he has an ebi of 180 and has some fine calves on the ground with the way the milk price is i thought i should get some value out of him
