[QUOTE="dun, post: 755108, member: 34"] SHO-ME-SELECT heifers have a minimum pelvic of 150 and they're considered easy calving. My old standard was 144 minimum and we never had a problem even with 80 plus calves from heifers. This is just the first year that we've measured them oursleves and idn;t just go by how they felt at AI time. Both of these are 14 high so they should have plenty of room by the time they're 2 and start calving. After seeing those numbers I wish we would have done the half Gelbvieh heifers. [/QUOTE]
