If you are using a Hereford bull on Angus cows and the across breed EPD for milk on a hereford is -17.5, do you subtract -17.5 from the Angus milk average? This Hereford bull is a +18 on milk. Do you subtract -17.5 from his milk EPD to give you an Angus milk EPD? Would you be afraid of his daughters milking ability? I'm not very familiar with Hereford EPD's to know what is average, below average or above. If this makes no sense I apologize. We've had lots of company and my fall cows are calving. I'm sure tired. My son is using this Hereford bull and I was wondering about the milk EPD difference between breeds and if he should be watching for a milk problem in the bulls daughters.
