[QUOTE="retro, post: 1237923, member: 23628"] that is were the WW Epds come into play, and the YW also. I have read from the previous posts about weighing newbie calves . I weigh every calf born. I also use bloodlines that are proven. I calve 150 cows a yr in 70 days , so I make the time. I don't play the guess and go game here. that is part of the management that goes with the job. Befor I made this post I checked my BW avg. so far this yr on 93 calves born the avg. is 82 lbs with the lowest being 68 lbs and the heaviest being 93 lb. Again this is what works the best for me.
