Re: Top two commercial bulls
I would rather spread my risk through one extra bull so I picked three.
Bomaz Cactus
(Brett x Laudan x Garter)
http://abs-bs.absglobal.com/dairy/milk.asp?CodTouro=29HO14470
E-Longview CM
(Sharky x Outside x Rudolph)
http://virtualdirectory.wwsires.com/bullpage.cfm?codeno=14HO05639
Morningview (Alta) Toyota
(Toystory x Finley x Durham)
http://data.altagenetics.com/Bull/BullPage.aspx?Naab=011HO10079&Site=A&Language=E&Print=Y
All these bulls have acceptable type with high production and health traits and they manage to miss out many of the top sires while doing so giving these bulls far more places to be used.
