    small calves = no pulling

    SIZ should give a more robust calf
    WLO and VMl and GZL are 3 good british friesians
    we had good bull claves from BEI and DEU at home

    DEU is throwing absolutley huge calves , IMO , he isnt suitable for putting on anything only british fresian type cows and since hes a low volume bull , it would be pointless to put him on a british fresian

    all PG bulls. may need to ask your technician to get some of them in because he may or may not be carrying them at the moment.
    yes DEU can be hard calved. BEI is the easiest calved of the bunch and still gives a square calf. I would recomend him on strong heifers
