[QUOTE="hillbillycwo, post: 777545, member: 13747"] Thanks for the advice. 3Way- I appreciate the clarification on the CE/LBW. I never thougt about that. Breeding LBW to heifers then retaining those heifers would reduce pelvic size over time and ability to have larger calves. I would think it would also increase the risk of having that calf that is just too small to be vibrant enough for survival if you had a late season birth. Is that thinking correctly? Never AI'd but I am going to talk to my vet about that one and my extension agent to see if I can find someone to teach me how to do it. I like that idea as I would not have to have an Angus bull for just heifers and then a terminal sire for my production cows. That would save on feed, hay and pasture. Plus you could keep those heifers and maintain your base and increase your genetics at the same time with some research and study. [/QUOTE]
