Bulls, whether they are intended for meat or breeding, come with different characteristics. When choosing Angus cattle for sale, you need to take into account many factors such as cost and breed. There are, however, several other factors that you need to consider when choosing the best bulls.
The Right Genes
Once you know the breed you want to buy, look for a bull that comes with quality genetics. Today, you can access an endless amount of information on genetics online that can provide you with the data you need to make the right choice. For example, the Angus breed ranks among the most popular breeds in the U.S when choosing breeding bulls.
Bull Health
As with any Angus cattle for sale, check the prospective bull for general health before committing to a purchase. Check the animal’s body condition and hoof health. Any illness and lameness will affect how well the bull can breed.
In-Person Viewing
When selecting a bull, choose a reputable breeder who allows you to see the animal before buying. There can be no substitute for viewing the bull before the sale.
Fit Your Specific Needs
In the end, the bull chosen must fit with the production goals of your farm. Search for a bull that will help you meet the goals you have set from a genetics standpoint as well as from a temperament standpoint.
