[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 14487"] An idea of what you can find. My hand is 15cm across when my fingers are splayed. If I palp a heifer and I can fully spread my hand both vertically and horizontally, that is a 225 square cm. measurement. I actually use a proper caliper to measure and it is very simple to do. There have been studies on exactly how many sq. cm. needed for different breeds due to differences in calf shapes with breed. I read the info about 10 years ago and have no idea where to find it now.
