[QUOTE="bandit80, post: 575489, member: 7956"] Gelbvieh had some of the same problems as well. Look at the average birth weight for Angus, Simmental, Herefords, and Gelbviehs. Start in the 70's, and look at the average today. I can't remember where the article was and can't find it on the web, but if I remember correctly, the avg BW for Angus calves in 1073 was 68 lbs. Gelbvieh in 1978 was 98 lbs. In 2003, Angus avg 81 lbs, and Gelbvieh averaged 85 lbs. Don't quote me on the numbers, but I think that was pretty close. Every breed has a reputation for this or that, some are myths, some are accurate. [/QUOTE]
