Just want to know if anybody will be able to guess this cow's weight. :)
She's 14 years old, Herefordxdairy. Not very tall. I'm ~5'6'' and her withers would be around my chest.

She with this year calf. Calf weaned at 480lbs at almost 6 months.

Photo from a few years ago. She started keeping condition worse this year and had problems with udder after all these years.

Have fun! :tiphat:
 
Funny thing is my original thoughts were that she was about 1750-1800 lbs but I figured I would be laughed out of the forum...HA HA.
So I scaled back my guess to better fit the thoughts of what people were used to looking at here. Your cattle are bigger and heavier there than most I have seen anywhere else. They also have more real muscle than many here. I can remember reading some of the weights that you had posted and 2000 lbs is somewhat common for you isn't it?
