[QUOTE="Rustler9, post: 120474, member: 440"] I agree with all of the above posts. I've always heard that first calves aren't worth keeping but I don't see that. We keep many of our heifer's first calves as many of them do surpass their mothers and I truly believe it is because of using good genetics. Most times they won't weigh out as much as calves from the older cows but they usually catch up in the long run. Don't discount your calf until you see what you have. [/QUOTE]
