Mating suggestions , Shottle/Durham
Do you have any suggestions of bulls on a Shottle heifer from a 92 pts Durham with good index?
- need to protect the high pins with her.
- I want to keep type-index-health traits-and marketing potential to sale a heifer too. Not easy ... I know !
-Feel free to give me N.america bulls , european bulls and new bulls suggestions.
Thanks, Debutante

I like the look of this Sandy Valley talent bull. Maybe you can play around with the index a bit because of shottle. Might be an opportunity to use something different. What is behind the durham?

It was posted in the breeding section, but loud and proud is considered the place for this sort of question.

Re: Mating suggestions , Shottle/Durham
Jeeves would be good but bolton might work well too. Onward looks good and so does Million. Good luck!

I put a picture of the Million we saw under August proofs. Another option could be Planet, we saw a couple of daughters, they are medium size, wringing wet and good uddered, you have to protect him for leg set.
Thank you , Debutante

I guess the Durham's pins are OK, being 92pts. Is the Shottle high in the pins? He's normally pretty consistently good there isn't he?
Bolton sounds ideal to me, ticking most of your boxes.
The Shottle is a bit high in the pin , yes.
Thanks for your suggestion , Debutante
