[QUOTE="skyline, post: 529615, member: 5305"] If you're taking a long term approach to this issue, I'd be concerned about whether this heifer that calved would ever "catch up". She put a lot of herself into that calf during a time when she was supposed to be growing frame for herself. You might wind up with a small cow that you wind up having to assist during calving each year. That would be my concern about keeping her. How much smaller is she at this point than the other heifers her age? [/QUOTE]
