[QUOTE="LittleValleyFarm, post: 1262455, member: 17291"] I am located in western North Carolina in the rolling hills between Winston Salem and Boone. I would guesstimate that they are 1,000 lbs right now at about 21 months old. They are around 3 months bred, so due in December. They have not had a pelvic measurement, but they are bred to calving ease bulls. Walnut Crest- I have my suspicions that he is just really attached to some of his old girls and he trusts them to keep producing. He has them comfortable with his operation and he doesn't want to put in the time to closely watch heifers at calving time. You're right about the numbers game though. Some people are just willing to under manage a little in order to do it the way that pleases them. I'm not going to put them down though because I fully expect to be that way when I'm his age!
