[QUOTE="dun, post: 275545, member: 34"] Interesting. A neighbor claimed that unless you're pulling 10% of your calves you're not challenging the cow. He went broke, too many ded calves and cows that wouldn;t breed back. Our heifers run around 60-70 pounds, cows around 76-85 pounds. I challange the cows to [i]raise[/i] a big calf not [i]birth [/i] a big calf. The heifers wean on average a low 500 and the cows a mid 600. No supplement, just minerals, water and poisonous high endophyte fescue diluted with clover. dun [/QUOTE]
