Had sone cows preg checked and heifers pelvic measured yesterday.
These heifers were out of low BW bulls one of which was on the extreme end of that with 50-60 lb calves from both heifers and cows.
I fed this group less grain overwinter than ever before. They have stayed in good shape but aren't as big as the ones I used to sell as breds because I fed those more to grow them out more.
They were born late January-early March 2022.
The smallest measured 150 cm
Vet recommended to cull her.
All other calves were between 165-192 cm.
