[QUOTE="dun, post: 1107676, member: 34"] Hidth and width are the standard method of measuring. While it seems like an easy thing to do, unless they are fairly skilled at it the measurments can be off if they don;t hit the exact points of the smallest opening. There is a table that shows what maximum weight of calf can be born easily based on the pelvic measurement. Last year we had a heifer calve a 93 pound surprise and her pelvic measurement was 130 sq centimeters. Not hardly ideal, but it's obviously doable. The heifer that calved the backwards calf yesterday had a 168 as a yearling [/QUOTE]
