[QUOTE="Oldtimer, post: 1675563, member: 97"] Genetics don't change with age. Two things that do influence weight of calves is feed/protein of the cow- and studies show the temperature/climate influences weights. After colder rough winters we get higher birth weights as the cows put more energy towards trying to make sure the calves live. On warmer less severe weathers the same bulls/cows will have lower birthweights. [/QUOTE]
