All were participants in selected on-farm and central bull tests. Our objectives for the study were to develop 205-and 365-day age-adjustment factors for scrotal circumference and derive a 365-day scrotal circumference prediction equation based on adjusted 205-day scrotal circumference. We determined that a 205-day scrotal circumference of approximately 21 cm is necessary to reach 32 cm at 1 year. Age-of-dam adjustment factor for 205-day scrotal circumference is +.8 cm for 2- and 3- year-old dams. The factor for 365-day circumference is +.6 cm for 2-year-old dams.BeefBeef cattleScrotal circumferenceAge adjustmentConference paper
