[QUOTE="dun, post: 72785, member: 34"] Our vet deals with cattle 6 days a week and can be off in his weight estimation (SWAG) by enough that the medication/wormer changes a good deal. He tends to over guess so there is enough administered. But as MrBilly stated, you can save significant money by doseing accuratlly. We also get a feel for the condition that the cow/heifer comes out of the nursing period by having a weight when she has first calved till she weans. It also serves as an indicator of the forage quality. Granted it's the forage they were on over the summer, but unless fertility or moisture changes your nutritional value is going to stay pretty much the same for next year. dun [/QUOTE]
