[QUOTE="Victoria, post: 361744, member: 1258"] What's the breed? What is the feeding program? Had a purebred red angus heifer, small heifer - that had an 87 pound bull calf. I AI'd her to a known heifer bull and was surprised at how big the calf was. She had him in less than five minutes though from first sight of the foot until he was born. She kept her condition and has lots of milk for him so I wouldn't say he is too big for her. If your heifer had a hard time having the calf and lost too much condition then I would say it's too big for her. If she's already had it then it's too late now anyway. [/QUOTE]
