[QUOTE="B&M Farms, post: 815008, member: 15666"] I figure most of my cows weigh around 1200 just by what ive culled lately. Sold steers averaging around 600 at 7 months. Im happy with that. Figuring these heifers a little less. They may be closer to 600. I run a bull year round but start a new one around dec for fall calving and cull every cow that doesnt have a calf in a year. Some cows will gain and in a few years they get spread out. Started a herford last dec. I probably should wait til dec to put these heifers back into the herd. That will put them at 17 to 18 months old. Will fertilized grass get them to to a target weight of 800 to 900 and just feed while haying? [/QUOTE]
