[QUOTE="Campground Cattle, post: 60359, member: 195"] Taken from Michigan State University Extension MSU Extension Beef Bulletins Geographic Region Hereford cows of comparable genetic makeup were moved from Miles City, Montana, to Brooksville, Florida, and vice versa. Ten years after this switch was made, birth weights in the Montana herd that had been moved to Florida had declined from 81 to 64 pounds. Conversely, birth weights in the Florida herd that had been moved to Montana had increased from 66 to 77 pounds. Other studies have yielded similar results, indicating that calves of comparable genotype will be born lighter in the south than in the north. [/QUOTE]
