[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 669813, member: 968"] I was going to inquire about the same thing. Where are you located? Although you should not compare 1 bull from one breed to another breed, breed averages can tell you a lot. Limousin is a GROWTH breed. Under good nutritional grazing situations, your cows should be weaning calves in the 600-700# range. Knersie has GREAT Hereford cattle. He is saying he likes his yearling bulls to be at least just under 900# on forage alone. Hereford breed is not the expected growth breed as a Limousin. It sounds like the Angus bull is right on tract of where he should be - and your Limo is considerably lighter than he should be - basing this solely on "expected" breed performance. [/QUOTE]
