[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 724384, member: 13"] Yes, a lot of things affect birth weight, but there is a lot of research showing the heavier calves are more likely to be problems than the lighter calves. Bull buyers are interested in actual birth weights, too. Plus, we used the Angus BW EPD for a lot of years successfully as a calving ease indicator. So I wouldn't discount birth weight concerns.
