[QUOTE="dun, post: 43796, member: 34"] An abnormally high BW is one of those things that can happen with any particular breeding. Some nicks are just given to problems. Years ago a client had a cow that when bred to one particular bull threw monsters while everyone else had little bitty things. Same cow bred to other bulls had calves the same size as all the others. A neighbor had a heifer that we bred to a bull that we had never seen a calf that even approached 70 lbs. 6 weeks early she had a dead heifer calf that was almost 100 pounds. Now if a cow or bull alwasy threw monsters or the majority of them were I never breed them again. The whole problem boils down to trying to figure out what mating will generate the onster. Especially when 99999 times out of 100000 there won't be a problem. Genetics and ma nature, ain't they fun? dun [/QUOTE]
