[QUOTE="Stickney94, post: 1652951, member: 37941"] Thanks Silver. I don't sell feeder calves so I have no experience. But the mathematical concept floated seems great on paper (more small cows-more calves-more pounds) but in practice I was curious how effective it was. I'm glad you had real data to provide for context. I also question the concept of the 1,100 lb beef cow. I have a scale and the only cow near 1,100 lbs is a 6 year old jersey that was my daughters clover bud 4H calf. That cow is nothing but bones/leather/bag and she is 1,100. Her twin sister looks the same but still weighs 1,250. If one of my beef cows weighs 1,100 they are very ill. And my cows are NOT large by any stretch (I live in cattle country, lots of cows around).
