How accurate are the tapes thatgo around the girth of a cow? Is the formula that takes length into account much more accurate?
I bought my Hereford heifer Nov 24 at 490 lbs. According to the tape she's 1049 lbs now. Does that seem about right for just being on pasture? I just saw pictures of her when we got her, she looked like a calf still, now she's big
BTW, my Hereford/Holstein cross taped at 91 inches, which was over 1900 lbs--- :shock:
Thanks!
