[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 1404741, member: 1715"] you mean 70% for teeth? At what age does this start to show up for you?[/quote] I wean at 10 months unless there is a forage problem. So 70% of my pre selected 2017 culls for not being able to hold enough condition while rising a respectable calf. They look old and run down. Longevity seems to be somewhat breed based. I have a few SM teenage Herefords and wf that still hold condition, but angus usually fade fast after about 10 years old, and some heavy milking crosses have issues after about 7 years old. So which is more profitable - - the cow that raises six 650# calves, or the cow that raises ten 500# calves? [/QUOTE]
