[QUOTE="Weaver, post: 560823, member: 410"] Yes, heifer number 2 is more likely to be a dark cutter than heifer number 1, but by no means does it mean she will be. Bulls are more likely to be dark cutters than heifers. Also gentics and handling practices play a large role in determining dark cutters. So to pick number one on the sole possibility on her being a dark cutter because she is spooky seems illogical. Heifer number one is two months younger than heifer 2 and seems small for her age. If one is butchered this fall or winter, heifer number two which is two months older and growing better would seem to be closer to being finished out especially with an average frame. But heck, number 2 might be a dark cutter, but i would definitely take that risk. [/QUOTE]
