[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1108563, member: 9096"] Yep, what's really strange is that the average BW jumped about 15 lbs from one year to the next and never came back down, we had the same bull when the weights jumped, and our next bull didn't change anything... The feed was about the same, the weather too. Our neighbour across the river, his BW's never went up.. I went and saw him about this time last year and had to laugh at these tiny little calves he had... they looked like puppies from what I was used to... They grew well though. I think my animals would do well anywhere the grass is green. I don't know much about fescue though.. What I can say is they aren't really range cows, though it'll depend on the range too. They handle 105F without shade if they need to (but it's a dry heat). Usually my really big BW bull calves are gestated 291-293 days. [/QUOTE]
