top 1% of the breed for weaning weight, yearling weight, docility, shear (tenderness), and Terminal Index; top 2% for average daily gain; top 4% for ribeye area; top 5% for maternal calving ease; top 10% for carcass weight, maternal weaning weight and All Purpose Index; and top 15% for calving ease. Our first Eagle calves arrived this past spring and we are very excited by the ease of calving, explosive growth, and fantastic dispositions. Our three heaviest weaning weight bulls are all by Eagle and the Eagle calves as a whole have the best dispositions of any bull we have ever used in our programs. Our goal has been to seek out bulls that excel in all traits without compromise, and Eagle definitely advances that cause.
