[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 724229, member: 7509"] I don't want to start another "cow size" thread here but I think it is a gross over simplification to just say "cull my thinner cows, keep replacements from my fatter cows". What I have found is that sometimes it is the thinner cows that make you the most money. The fatter cows just eat more without producing a proportionately better calf. There is much more to it than that. It doesn't take "many years" to have cows that can do well on just hay and pasture if you get the right ones from the right places and right sellers initially... jmho. Jim [/QUOTE]
