[QUOTE="dun, post: 1406840, member: 34"] Correct, the genetics would be the same within the normal variation between full sibs. Because the heifer is still growing she won;t have as much milk typically as she would have for later calves. That pretty much means that the calf (may) wean lighter but when her true genetics are expressed as she matures she'll be just like any other full sib from later pregnancys The better genetics comes into play simply because you should be using better wuality bulls each year.
