[QUOTE="DOC HARRIS, post: 495969, member: 1683"] In order to strike a comparative balance (and "balance" is of what most profitable activities are comprised), I consider that the definition of a "big Cow" is one which is of a Frame score of 6.5 and above, and will weigh 1400 pounds or more three months AFTER she delivers her third calf, or about Five and a half or or Six years old. That stabilizes her MATURE weight without taking into consideration her growth spurts, and/or her pregnancy status. My idea of a good average herd cow weight is 1100 - 1250 lbs. Those cows will make you the most PROFIT! (Over the long haul! . . .and it must be a LONG haul to establish a workable "average".) DOC HARRIS [/QUOTE]
