[QUOTE="Ohrmundt Simmentals, post: 1238361, member: 20629"] There are just too many factors in BW to be picking on just the breed. Feed, climate( Region of the country ), genetics, and plain old chance. There are many breeds of cattle that may range from 60-130 ever year on a given farm and across the breed as a whole. That's not just Simmental. I've seen a lot of 100+ bw in Angus and others. Nothing wrong with a 100 pound calf if it coming out of mature cow unassisted. I'm also pretty confident that if you took the a bull cow combo and got 100 calves born in say Georgia and took the same pair and got 100 calves in Canada. You would probably see an easy 20 lbs difference. :2cents: :2cents: Ron the upper 80's twins is pretty amazing to. That's a lot of calf crawling around in there. I think you might like some of the temp fencing of rotational grazing. Especially if you with your girls a lot already. Keep up the good work Ron! [/QUOTE]
