[QUOTE="dun, post: 196728, member: 34"] As usual, a slightly different view on calving heifers. I don;t think that it all has to do with growth or age. Some has to do with the stretching of all of the required muscles and ligaments. Seems like heifers just don;t(can't) dilate as much as older cows. That has nothing to do with size or age. 3 year olds calving for the first time still have calving issues and they're grown pretty much to full size by then, that in my warped mind puts it back to the muscle ligament deal. Nothing scientific, just observations and opionions dun [/QUOTE]
