Does more pounds per acre make up for being docked at the sale barn for small frame size?

[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1827288, member: 968"] You are like a dog with a bone and won't quit fighting for it. You are scouring the world looking for something to prove your point. You found a NZ Dairy study. They took the absolutely lowest fertility females and bred them to the lowest fertility bulls so they had extremes. Super high fertility and super low fertility. Wow - the low fertility cattle were low on fertility. WOW!!!!! The study showed the low fertility cows were [B]44# heavier[/B] than the high fertility cows. Hmm. That's like the cows sh!t a time or 2 more than the others. Really, you pulled this study to prove WHAT?? When cattle are actively cycling, they don't gain as much as a dud that is sitting around eating. [B]44# - is this your example of big cows vs small cows?[/B] When I referenced the big cows in the research LONG ABOVE - there was obviously pizz poor grazing and the big cows were not getting enough nutrition for their reproductive needs.
