[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1551945, member: 968"] The fullblood Simmental has/had a high butterfat content. For that reason, dairymen bred & milked 1/2 bloods to raise the butterfat in their tank. They were paid more on the butterfat %. You can test the components of your cows milk just like a dairyman does. But, ww tells us what we need to know, if you actually compare apples to apples and calculate a 205 day weight. You have to adjust for age of calf to compare them. [/QUOTE]
