[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 14983"] The reasoning behind this is that some will breed a heifer with an inferior bull just to give her a small calf at breeding. If this is done, the calf may not have as good genetics as subsequent breedings of the dam would. If a good bull was used, then resulting calves should be every bit as good whether out of a first calf heifer or a cow. The calf's genetics would be the same.JMHO [/QUOTE]
