[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 16915"] That is the perpetual question. Do you know anything about the heifers parentage? The daughter of our heaviest milker didn't milk much as a heifer, but we gave her another chance. She has great calves, they just grow slower then the others. Her second calf was growing slowly until she discovered that her grandma qould feed her. Obviously this girl just isn't going to milk. We'll be weaning and preg checking next week, she is going to grow wheels. dun > I have just started raising > Simmental's and my first calf is a > couple of months old.
