[QUOTE="Herefords.US, post: 609790, member: 3972"] How about stacking Pure Gold and Keynote? :lol2: Then how about stacking P606 on top of that stack? (Something I'm considering!) Regarding calf size, I've found that the smaller calves at birth generally also end up weighing less at weaning. Since I haven't experienced any of those extremely large calves in my herd, I don't know if the reverse is also true. I know I'd be very happy if all of my calves weighed around 80-85 pounds at birth. Speaking of Pure Gold, I just got my calving report from Ultimate Genetics where they implanted some frozen embryos of mine, Pure Gold X Achiever daughter, into some recip cows in Louisiana. I'm actually a little disappointed because the BW of the Pure Gold bull calves were so low. Results were: 2 Bull calves, BW of 76 and 65 lb., 2 Heifer calves BW 80 lb. each. From the same recip herd, I got 2 Moler calves (Moler X Harland bred 501 daughter). Bull calf BW @ 90 lb and a heifer calf BW @ 78 lb. George [/QUOTE]
