[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 481040, member: 1715"] There was some data out of a Canadian study that showed pure bred bred beef cows averaged about 4 calves and cross breed beef cows averaged about five calves. It sounds low but we all like to remember the Grandma cow that lasted 15 years rather than the duds... I have a neighbor that specialized in buying cheap and/or "young" broken mouth cows and covering them with black bulls. He ends up culling over 30% per year so he has to buy them right. [/QUOTE]
