[QUOTE="DiamondSCattleCo, post: 277087, member: 2862"] Dun, just out of curiosity have you tried increasing your birthweights on those exact same cows and checking your weaning weights? The reason I ask is because I've done that. My experiments with low birth weight calves was only a few years ago, and many of the cows I used then are still around. I've found that increasing my BW by 20 lbs gave me another 50 - 75 lbs weaning weight on the average. Rod [/QUOTE]
