[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 20935"] I've had Balancer cows that were a 5 frame and 1300 pounds. They are deep, wide bodies that milk well and raise dandy calves. Dun, if you were getting that big of females out of "moderate sized" Gelbviehs they must have had some really big framed animals not too far back in their pedigrees. Granted 15 years ago it was more difficult to find a whole lot of true moderate framed Gelbviehs, but in the past several years many Gelbvieh producers have recognized the need to downsize and there are now lots of good Gelbvieh bulls available that are moderate framed and breed true, siring moderate framed, easy fleshing cattle consistently.
