[QUOTE="lithuanian farmer, post: 1474579, member: 19683"] No set one, as we have quite a big range in birth weights (the smallest we've ever had was ~57lbs, the biggest 160lbs, so far). For example, july-october calving cows/heifers had small calves, ~77lbs, maybe up to 88lbs. Since November we didn't had a calf smaller than 90 lbs (the biggest 116.8lbs). Last year, average of all weighed calves was 101.19lbs. Fall born calves not weighed. We prefer when heifers don't go higher than 100lbs and most cows not higher than 110lbs. However, there are some exceptions with several cows, which can handle huge calves without assistance. [/QUOTE]
