[QUOTE="Brandonm2, post: 152272, member: 2095"] If I remember back to repro class, a heifer is born with all the eggs she will ever need (and then some) and does NOT grow more, so her eggs should not be any "older" than any 5 year old cow's. I think the problem your friend ran into and what Gale's friend has is extra condition. I bet if you treated such heifers like a horse and "exercised" it hard for six months, THEN bred her I bet it would work; but who wants to spend six months working gut off of a cow by hooking her to a training wheel or luge line?
