[QUOTE="greenwillowherefords, post: 74220, member: 587"] I've got a cow that had a 95 pounder her first time unassisted (the heaviest ever born on this place) and he was one of the most vigorous you could hope to see. Never a problem. Her second calf was 92 pounds unassisted, same story. He got around so well at perhaps an hour old, he nearly climbed through the fence! Those 092 calves really tended to be problem free and good doers. On the othere hand, another cow had a fifty-something pound calf that was just as vigorous. Which reminds me, we sold him and his mother last year. He became a show steer, and ended his career last night by placing fourth in his class, weighing 1250#. He got spanked by three black steers :cry: [/QUOTE]
