[QUOTE="ClinchValley86, post: 1811480, member: 38595"] Absolutely. Both these cows were problematic last year. I should have called it then. Considering trying a 15 year old beef. With the condition of them the odds are very good I think. Worst case they'll make a lot of hamburger. Both run 1400 pounds or better. They're going on corn soon for Late September appointments unless I change my mind. These slaughter cow prices very well could change it. Been reading about the desirability of older cow beef in France. I've gone as far as 8 or 9 years old I'm pretty sure and all was good. See no reason why these wouldn't be. Will be for personal/family consumption anyways. On a side note, the calf did nurse 2.5 quarts from a bottle this morning. I may try one more time to get it to nurse momma. My 6 year old daughter is ready for a bottle calf she says. Wants to halter it. Lol. [/QUOTE]
