[QUOTE="cattleman99, post: 1518714, member: 14530"] Gelbvieh are much like Fleckvieh in that if the calves (both male and female) don't have a bit of leather at this age they won't amount to much when they get older. There is a line you don't want to cross, where you get to much but once they calve for the first time the leather disappears and they become more feminine. The bulls just grow into it. I have raised Fleckvieh genetics for 30 years. Also, I never cut calves at this age. That 5-6 month age is the awkward stage and you really don't know what you got yet. [/QUOTE]
