[QUOTE="Badlands, post: 359523, member: 5010"] I suspect that "small frame" really means fat little toad, ie less than 3 frame. Large probably means 8 or larger, and medium is everything in between. I've been to a few graded calf sales and that is generally what I have observed. They don't call them large or small until it is very obvious that they are real oddballs. There is about 400 pounds of finish weight difference that they aren't accounting for when they say "medium frame" then, isn't there? I think they really have to be out of line to suffer the "small frame" discount. It's too bad they didn't include the breakdown of how many cattle fall into each category. Badlands [/QUOTE]
