[QUOTE="MikeC, post: 275566, member: 1604"] First of all, I would say 10% is way too high. That's taking it to the extreme. Extremes never work in the cattle business. Some of my cows can handle a higher BW and some can't. It's just that simple. Like I said above, birthweights depend on many environmental/conditioning factors too. But in the end there is a positive correlation between BW's and WW's. Likewise to your scenario, a guy about 30-40 miles from me went into the Char business 10-12 years ago to raise Extra-Low BW Char bulls only. He didn't last long either. [/QUOTE]
