[QUOTE="TexasRancher, post: 1829762, member: 8359"] @ greybeard ...great story i enjoyed it. You can see...those smaller cattle fended for themselves, much like goats. Smaller thinner breeding cattle of old were money makers. I have two angus, that produce heavy big calves.... but run thin with their calves on them (no matter how much i feed them, only their calves get bigger)...but they always breed back. I hate seeing thin angus mothers, 900lbs to 1050 but they're doing their job...it's just how they roll. I believe the two thin ones are probably the most profitable cows on the ranch. They eat less, do less ground damage and pump out calves. But it's painful to see them running thin. [/QUOTE]
