[QUOTE="Dusty Britches, post: 1661899, member: 1900"] Kit Pharo recommends a similar concept - his cows are 1100 pounds and wean more pounds per acre than 1300-1400 pound cows. I've noticed that when I had 1400 pound cows, they weaned 7 month old calves that weighed 600 pounds. I now have 1000-1100 pound cows that are weaning 7 month old calves that weigh 600 pounds. Thing is I can run more cows on the acreage so I wean more calves = more pounds per acre. My 2 year old bulls are about 1800 pounds and as they age they increase to about 2200 pounds. A 1300 pound bull is tiny. [/QUOTE]
