[QUOTE="southernultrablack, post: 1487175, member: 23061"] Thanks everyone for the replies! My gut tells me to send her down the road, mostly based on her narrow build. I've not dealt a whole lot with really moderate cattle and didn't know if I was expecting to much. What would you expect a cow that matures at 1-1100 pounds to weigh at weaning? What about at yearling? If I'm not mistaken heifers should be at 65% of mature weight at breeding, for an 1100 pound mature weight that's only 715 pounds at 13-15 months old.This is not an argument to keep her, just something I have wondered.
