[QUOTE="Dee, post: 158479, member: 350"] They will start calving on Friday the 13th of January. So any time now. When I first looked at I87 he was a +2.0 then went down to a +0.3, now up to a +3.0. The PFred heifers averaged #990 at breeding time, which was last April, so I am sure they are pushing the #1200 mark. They seem fairly wide and "roomy" and they have alot of frame. The heifers averaged #68 at birth, and PFred had a -0.7 BW EPD. So I am hoping that will also help. At this point all I can do is hope for the best. I just figured if his BW EPD went down it would continue to go that direction, and not take a huge up swing!?! [/QUOTE]
