Information on Auburn University BCIA Bull Test

It is time to nominate quality bulls for the 58th Auburn University BCIA Bull Test.  The pertinent information is:

Birth Dates: September 15 to December 31, 2008
Nomination Deadline: Tuesday, June 10, 2008
Delivery Dates: July 21-22, 2008
On-Test Dates: August 11-12, 2008
Off-Test Dates: November 3-4, 2008

All bulls will have individual feed intake measured.  This allows calculation of feed efficiency and residual feed efficiency.  Auburn is one of the few places in the United States that can measure individual feed intake on a routine basis.

There are spaces for 96 bulls.  We encourage testing of contemporaries.  75 bulls must be consigned by the nomination deadline.

All consignors must be an active Alabama BCIA member.  You can contact Michelle Elmore at 205-646-0115 for a membership application.
