[QUOTE="randiliana, post: 442476, member: 2308"] I want our calves to average in that 95 lb range. A bit higher wouldn't bother me too much, but I do know that not every cow can handle a 100+ lb calf, and for now I don't want to have to cull that deeply into the herd. As long as she can have it on her own, and raise it respectably that is all I concern myself with. So the low BW/Low producing cows will end up on the cull list. Here we have a 2 chance rule, I will forgive one poor calf (especially out of a heifer), but not 2. I don't have anything broken down that much at the moment, but usually the dead/weak calves we have are on the small end of the spectrum. [/QUOTE]
