I didn't mean to change them but how old was that bull when you bought him?

What's the new bull out of

Usually buy around the 14 - 20 month stage. The one that got to ten was bought at six year old. Looked roughish but was producing. He was well over the ton when we hung him up and we were starting to worry about the heifers getting hurt,. The new lads by zag. Nice lines and wasn't overly pushed. I've thrown him in with a mix of a few heifers and cows and if I don't like the calves he'll get gate, I nearly moved the seven year old a few years back but luckily I didn't. He got a reprieve when his bulls averaged 3.60 a kilo.

Phrased it wrong..the bull you sold when he was 6, what was he when you bought him

14 months, he was a bull then too.
