[QUOTE="3waycross, post: 777360, member: 6713"] There are plenty of real good low birthweight Angus bulls that have great numbers for growth and milk. Why not AI your heifers to one of them and then you can always keep any replacements from that mating that you like, and then go back on the GV with them later on. It maintains that good heterosis. RE breeding out calving ease. I have been told by some pretty knowledgeable folks that if you just keep breeding for low BW sooner or later your calving ease inherent in your cowherd will suffer. In other words they get to the point where that is all they can birth is little bitty calves. [/QUOTE]
