[QUOTE="IL Rancher, post: 330780, member: 4097"] How big are the mommas... I have Dexters that will wean a calf almost as big as some of the other Dexter cows are as mature animals, lol... But no, I don't imagine the mere precense or lack their of of horns would make a difference once way or the other... Don't know though, never had a polled Dexter but the steers that we have left horns on of the commercial cows always grew at comparable rates to the ones that were polled. Momma could also have given polled baby a big head start on the horned one with better milk produciton... I would think it would close a bit though.. [/QUOTE]
