    because he is only being used over hear since last summer, and the we the irish don't thrust them french. But if he was easy in france im sure he'll be the same over here.
    I'v used him aswell but dont have him until sept. I'll be looking for a few heifers off him. Hes suppose ta be a big tall, long bull with very high muscle of 125.

    Yeah i will, should have one in about ten days. I used him on four third calvers. You should be ok with heifers as long as they dont get too fat.

    Had one yesterday, a bull calf of course. Average sized calf, easily born. I'll try to put a pic up. I reckon he'll be ok for heifers.
