[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 808814, member: 7509"] I think to be a fair comparison, there must be some adjustment for age differences between calves. If the calves are gaining about 2-1/2 lb per day near fall weaning time, a 30 or 45 day difference in age can make a big difference in the ww to cow wt ratio. I use the calf's 205 day adjusted weaning weight as it is calculated by my Cattlemax program and the cow's actual weight at weaning. Jim [/QUOTE]
