MB, Canada | As others said, a test at 12 months is fine. To my understanding the test isn't useless before then but testicle size can change a lot up to a year. To your point about him not being big enough, you might be surprised what a what he's capable of. Just before weaning, I watched one of my 8.5 month old 700 lb bulls make the magic happen with a 1400 lb cow. Long bone growth slows down sooner in bulls than steers--put a yearling in a pen with a 5-year-old and while you may see a big size difference there likely won't be a big height difference. Plus the young guys are more athletic. | |
