[QUOTE="Lucky, post: 1720006, member: 32659"] It doesn't surprise me that the Angus association put this out there. They have been inflating weaning weights for years but the last I checked the static 205 day weight is still 550#. I think the article mentioned this. Angus cross calves sired by good Angus bulls do perform better than most other breeds once on feed through. I'm sure given the opportunity and proper supplements they will wean at 750 too, problem is for most this just isn't feasible. [/QUOTE]
