WHAT ARE EPD S ?
Birth Weight (BW): The difference in pounds of birth weight. In today’s production Angus genetics we find that there are not many bulls that should present calving difficulties in mature cows. The BW EPD is preferred as a selection tool more than the actual birth weight of the bull. Environment and management can change the birth weight of an animal so drastically that the EPD is a better tool. Weaning Weight (WW): The difference in pounds at weaning. Also seen as a 205 day weight in places. Yearling Weight (YW): The difference in pounds at yearling. Also seen as a 365 day weight in places. Milk (MK): The difference in pounds at weaning as a result of milk production of daughters. Honestly this EPD we don’t worry about unless they are in the top 5 or bottom 5% of the breed as there is little to be known about how much milk is actually being produced among the different environments and managements in the country. Scrotal (SC): The difference in scrotal circumference in a bulls sons. Docility (DOC): The difference in docility scores. Cattle are given scores for disposition and a higher docility is more favorable.
ESTIMATED PROGENY DIFFERENCES (EPDs) ARE A PREDICTION OF HOW A SIRE OR DAMS’ OFFSPRING WILL PERFORM COMPARED TO OTHERS.
EPDs are a representation in the difference in pounds, inches, or centimeters (depending on how that trait is weighted or measured.) The EPD numbers do not correlate to an actual weight or measurement however, they are only to be used to compare against other animals EPD’s to represent the difference in genetic potential. For example, a 2.1 BW EPD does not correlate to an 85 pound actual calf. When comparing a 2.1 BW EPD bull to a 1.1 BW EPD bull you could expect a one-pound difference in actual birthweights between the two sires. Calving Ease Direct (CED): The percentage of unassisted births of a sire when used on first calf heifers. Higher is more favorable. This is to just be used when looking for bulls to be used on heifers. We recommend an 8 or higher.
