[QUOTE="jkwilson, post: 73762, member: 969"] Yep, calving ease to me means easier on the owners! As we all know, EPDs don't mean jack when you're up to your knees in wet manure and afterbirth with a worried 1300lb cow in your face. Four calves in three days, 71, 60, 101, 77. 77 was out of a heifer who had it unassisted while we were in the barn trying to get 101 to figure out what an udder was. 60 was out of a heifer daughter of the cow who had the 101. All the same bull. The average birthweight is fine, but statistics don't tell the whole story. [/QUOTE]
