[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1797429, member: 9096"] you're not measuring at the right place!.. Bigger cows have deeper chests, I found that the chest height often doesn't vary much with cow size.. 2" of hip height increase is probably 1/2" chest height increase. I don't want to breed tiny cows, just a moderate, beefy looking 1400 lb max mature weight that does well on grass, lives a long time and has marketable calves Nearly my whole herd is from this cow, I think she was about 14 years old here, got 16 calves from her, Kept a few bulls from her daughters and granddaughters too and like them [ATTACH type="full"]28431[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
