Heard something from a long time cattle producer that got me thinking..
He said he never retains calves from 1st calf heifers. He said the first calf a heifer has
will be the worst calf they ever produce. We haven't noticed this to be true in our operation
so far, but we are fairly early into our bloodlines...
Anybody know of any truth to this? Opinions?
