[QUOTE="Fire Sweep Ranch, post: 1461640, member: 18809"] No chance of BVD, we check just about every animal except the last year (ear notch). The ONLY small caves I have had was the Broadway, the others are average. His EPD's changed when they reran the numbers with the new system, and I have little faith in them. I know what we have experienced here, smaller than average and 7 days early. One two weeks early! There is something going on with him (my cattle are rarely early), but my sample size is too small to give any validity. And, none of them have been weak. The little heifer out of our Broker female (a heifer) was 2 weeks early, but is already 154 pounds at 45 days! She took off like gangbusters after she was born! The one we lost a few weeks ago was 7 days early. So my small birth weights are mostly attributed to early births. [/QUOTE]
