For those of you that collect data what are you guys seeing?

We have done all the steer calves, half the heifers and none of the bulls yet.

Here where we sit so far all calves had creep for 30-45 days. First ones weaned for "show" calves rest them were today. For adjusted weights I use this as we don't have all one breed (I use http://m.cattle.com/ww.aspx ) and average daily gain I take actual ww - BW/days old

568 str, Act ww 538, adj ww 716, adg 3.07 dam PB Angus always raises good one. Calf by our W/C United SimAngus bull from Hook's

C54 hfr by Big Casino out of PB Angus cow by Ironwood New Level act ww 539, adj ww 621, adg 2.65

C52 hfr by Hook bull ouf of PB Shorthorn cow act ww 506, adj ww 626, adg 2.55

So far them are the ones worth talking about! Hope to see them bulls over 700 actual and some close to 4 ADG....
 
Got the PB Angus Heifers along with bulls and a SimAngus bull weaned.

585 bull SimAngus Robust x Right Answer x Jumpstart act ww 687, adj ww 820 (Simmental has him at 795) adg 3.36

558 bull PB Angus waiting DNA sire, dam is Mytty daughter act ww 657, adj ww 801, adg 3.51

561 bull PB Angus waiting DNA sire, dam is Connection act ww 555, adj ww 710 adg 2.95

Some of the PB Angus heifers were act ww 492, adj ww 673, adg 2.87 for the best one and down to act ww 416, adj ww 639, adg 2.41

all in all real happy with most of the calves, sure weaned nice!
 
BSE yes the 558 calf was 164 days old, 585 was 177 days, 561 was 159.

Oldest calf was 210 days youngest down to 138. Run out of grass on rented pasture. Hauled hay to cows for 3 weeks. Made no sense to keep hauling hay when I could just haul calves home.
