[QUOTE="randiliana, post: 541713, member: 2308"] Well, it all depends on the bulls you are using now. If the bulls you are using are bottom end bulls, and/or just don't compliment your cows, you can probably find something that WOULD add 100 lbs. If you are using the right bulls on your cows, probably not. If you are using bulls of the same breed as your cows, you can likely add 25 lbs (or more) just by changing the breed of your bulls. There are a lot of factors that affect weaning weights, even beyond the bulls you are using. Feed is the biggest one, if your cows are not fed right or enough, different bulls won't help you. If your cows don't have the milk, they can't raise the calf either. [/QUOTE]
