[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 828055, member: 7509"] In my particular operation being able to give birth to a live healthy calf and get it started with minimal assistance from me is about 2/3 of what I need a cow or heifer to do. I'm selling beef not breeding or show stock. And they need to make it on my grazing system. This Schu-lar heifer therefore passes the 2/3 test. I am surprised at how active the calf is at sucking and how 24 watches out for and takes care of the calf. Sure stuff can happen from now to processing but a lot of that is my responsibility. The main thing I need from 24 now is a good weaning weight to cow weight at or above 50 percent. We'll see. Jim [/QUOTE]
