I prefer a cow to have a BCS of 6. BCS of 7 if she's a heavy milker once she starts lactating.
Due to our lovely northern climate, it doesn't take long for a cow to get pulled down if she's nursing a vigorous calf in cold weather.
Once June and grasstime come, they pick up condition quickly, but it's easier to keep them in decent flesh if they're a little on the heavy side before calving.
Take care.
