[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 712146, member: 968"] First, a bottle babie can be just as growthy as a cow fed baby under great management. Second, a Hereford/Angus animal can be just as big as most any breeds - especially British breeds. Cattle "finish growing" around 5 years old. Do you have any idea how much she weighs??? Maturity comes with weight most of the time. We breed our heifers at around 14 months of age. British heifers should weigh about 700#??? We raise Simmental, and most of our heifers will weigh 1000# at breeding. If she is cycling, she must be getting close to breeding size??? A picture with her near something that would indicate her actual size might help you get a better answer - definately a weight would help. [/QUOTE]
