[QUOTE="sidney411, post: 218008, member: 430"] I think it may have some bearing to the point that a lot of people used poor scrubby easy calving bulls of the heifers which they would never use on full grown cows. A lot of people breed their beef heifers to jersey and longhorns to get a small calf, so those calves won't be as good as the one's they will have bred to a good bull. Now if they bred the heifer to the same bull for her 2nd calf, both calves would have the same genetic potential. The only diference would be nutritional and management. [/QUOTE]
