[QUOTE="Alan, post: 1238385, member: 378"] Fire sweep is 100% on to my train of thought. So many factors in a calfs BW, feed, environment, cows genetics, etc. just because a cow throughs a 100lber doesn't mean the bull throws 100lber. I have no calves yet but a bunch of cows with full udders and pudding butts in my pasture. I'm very concerned about calving season this year because we have had such a mild winter and warm early spring. I have a lot of green grass and all my cows are as fat as ticks, I would prefer they were 7 framed cows at calving but they are more like 8.5 to 9. I know this is a problem that many would love to have with their harsh weather this year, but the cows have had more grass than the can keep up with and I have had them in my small calving pasture for over a month ....... I feel I have a good chance of big calfs and hard deliveries this year and it's not the Bulls fault it's mother natures fault along with high cattle prices. I posted the first on this thread because I didn't know if Ron realized he was slamming fire sweeps bull in around about way. [/QUOTE]
