[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 305932, member: 9"] Guess this is the difference between a "standard operation" and a "registered operation". Every one of our registered cattle have statistics for sire & dam, date of birth, weights at birth/weaning/12 mos old (and yearly thereafter), branded, private herd numbers, and regular updated photos of each one ([i]no two longhorns are exactly patterned or look alike[/i]), etc. Some of our most predictable "senior" cows that spit a quality calf out every year are 8, 10, 12, 14 years with more good years left. Think most of the "success" with [u]anyone's[/u] older cattle is selection of quality animals when purchased, excellent nutrition, timely vaccinations and de-worming, and living a "stress-free" life...lol.
