[QUOTE="alisonb, post: 794017, member: 13050"] I should have mentioned that the animal was a Holstein Bonsmara X, the body more inclined to that of a beef animal. The measurement was taken in early morning before feed. My tape is not breed specific so I'm assuming it is intended for beef breeds even though it has been pretty accurate on Holstein cows and other larger animals previously. Another detail that influences weight is transportation of the animal, she was shot and loaded on the farm. This time round the error margin was rather big. I will get in touch with the butcher on Monday and find out about the fat, because she was rather fat :oops: . Thanks for the replies. [/QUOTE]
