[QUOTE="Travlr, post: 1734003, member: 42463"] Several years ago I bought a cross-bred Gert/char heifer from Petersons in Decatur Arkansas, and AI'd her to a chianina. The resulting heifer was MASSIVE. Her first calf was the result of a little Hereford bull jumping the fence and the calf weaned at over 800 pounds. But every time she calved after that was twins and she lost half of them at birth. She weighed 2000 pounds and would have 120+ pound calves. Peterson Santa Gertrudis were breeding for size, and of course chianina are big. That was the biggest cow I had... and five sets of twins after that first birth. [/QUOTE]
