[QUOTE="Waterway65, post: 1365256, member: 22313"] One thing not discussed yet. Let's say a cow in my herd ways 1400. However a year in my neighbors herd and she is only 1250. Management is a bigger factor than genetics period. Consider how replacements are raised and two years are grown out and you can have a 250 lb difference in mature weight I won't disregard genetics but the environment a animal is raised and developed in as well as the body condition score the manager wants to maintain is the biggest factor [/QUOTE]
