[QUOTE="Alan, post: 1239961, member: 378"] Cow is a moderate framed cow but is a very fat cow, I'd say a 8.5 to 9 bcs. I'm blaming it on the mild winter and early spring grass but since she is my wife's tame bottle baby I suspect she was getting grained on the sly. I'm just guessing the weight, after 5 hrs of working on the cow I may be wrong. The vet wanted to hang the calf by the hind legs to see if there was any chance of reviving it.....(?) I hung it for her. After a beer and an hour in the recliner it may have been lighter, 140 to 150, still way to big for a fat first time heifer. Thanks retro, my wife named her, to me she I'd just 34..... unless I'm trying to get her in the alley to go into the chute, then I call her a couple other names. [/QUOTE]
