[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 1222500, member: 852"] If you just need meat in the freezer, the butcher is coming this week, and aren't concerned about whether it's hamburger or steaks... butcher the one that will give you the better yield. If the cow is in good body condition she'll probably be the better choice, but without pictures of both or touching the cow I sure can't say online. You're probably looking at a 40-55% carcass weight on the cow depending on body condition, then 40% of that is take-home. FYI. [/QUOTE]
