[QUOTE="jnowack, post: 277565, member: 3954"] Easy now CB. I was just being a little sarcastic. I thought you had a sense of humor. Like you just said anomolies can happen. You said you would ship a cow because she had a 100 lb calf because you don't want those genetics around. Who is to say it wasn't the bull's fault or just one of those anomolies. I don't want 100 lb calves either. I sell bulls and most of them get bred to heifers so I watch the birthweight and calving ease. If I have a 100 lb bull calf it goes to the salebarn because I can't market it as a breeding bull. If I have a cow that consistantly throws big calves I would also cull her, but accidents do happen and I would not cull a cow just because she had one calf that weighed 100 lbs. [/QUOTE]
