[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1231631, member: 14585"] I have no idea in what context you want to use the information...but if you're talking many years ago and the cattle were smaller framed than what they are raising today and the conditions harsh..... 75 lb calf doubling it's weight in 60 days [150 lbs] then doubling it again to 300 lbs at 4 months would be 225 lb gain in 120 days = 1.88 lbs per day perhaps to use as a reference point from what they started with 'moving 300 lb calves back in the day' to moving 400 lb calves to show the progress the family's herd has made over time.
