Longhorn calf weight estimate

[jmorrison0722]

I have 3 longhorn female calfs, right at 6 months old. They graze with the others (8 heifers and a bull) but I do still see them sucking on the momma as well. To sell them privately I need to know the weight, but I have no clue. I've searched online but didn't find anything specific to longhorns.

Based on age alone, I'm looking for a ballpark estimate of a longhorn calf at 6 months. I understand there are too many variables to be exact and that longhorns in general are smaller than many other breeds...just a ballpark.

Thanks!
Jeff

Can you catch em up? Try a "weight tape".

There should be some scales local to you such as a grain elevator or truck stop. Just weigh truck and trailer empty, then reweigh loaded for an average weight.

They'd probably sell by the head if you sold them private treaty. The barn will tell you what they weigh if you sell them there.

As mentioned above any grain, feed or fertilizer dealer worth there salt has scales.
As does any scrap yard.
Or feed dealer allows free use of his scales to locals
