[QUOTE="Chris H, post: 442213, member: 1974"] Good data to look at. I do admit to going back to the post where you posted the picture of that big heifer with a 109 lb bw and doing the calculations myself just to make sure you subtracted the bw from the ww when calculating the adg. :) How long have you been analyzing the data like this? Have you seen any frame size increase through keeping the larger, faster growing heifers? Is your birthweight creeping up? Is your calving in a pretty tight window or is it strung out over several months? If it's strung out, have you seen any bw trend that might correspond with the temperature? Reason I ask that is several studies have shown the same cows, bred the same way, will have smaller calves in warmer climates. [/QUOTE]
