[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 13370"] 720 is an acceptable weight to breed a heifer at. She is on the small side, but bucket calves usually are. Breeding her now would be an April calf, she would be 24 months old. She should be able to gain 3-400 pounds from now till calving, but you will need to breed her to a very easy calving bull. The main concern is has she been cycling so you can breed her? If not she might be better off going for beef, just because she is a heifer doesn't mean she has to be kept as a cow.
