[QUOTE="MrBilly, post: 27537, member: 87"] I am sure there are people who do not use scales, but I do not know of one who is an honest and capable breeder who doesn't. Seed stock producers need accurate weights for birth, weaning, giving wormers, etc. Now that you have a scale, try estimating visually acow's weight and then obtain the actual. You will see that in the past you have probably over, or under, wormed your cows - it will pay for itself! We also use them for our small direct beef sales, to know how much feed to offer, and to determine if the animal is approaching a finishing weight. [/QUOTE]
