[QUOTE="badroute, post: 479046, member: 1387"] In 1996 I calved out 72 heifers. Right now in 2007 those cows are coming 12's and I still have either 57 or 58 of them left, I'm not sure. I would call these straight bred commercial angus cows. The thing about these cows is they come from the older angus genetics that tended to have quite a bit more longevity to them. I might add that these cows are in good shape and all raise good calves. To be truthful I'm not looking forward to selling them next fall or the one after. [/QUOTE]
