However, all this depends on the breed and each individual bull. Some breeds that are later maturing (typically Continentals), like Charolais, Simmental, Limousin or Salers, won't start showing puberty until they're around 12 to 16 months of age.
It is a good management practice to restrict young New Zealand White bucks 6 to 9 months of age to mating 2 does per month. After they are over 9 months of age they should be used, the same as adult bucks, for breeding one doe a week the usual number of does kept for each buck is ten.
