[QUOTE="ddd75, post: 1471384, member: 23575"] The entire line of thinking used to be 65%+ full grown body weight. This is saying 50-55% is the new target. How is that not the same thing as breeding them earlier? like I was saying before.. In sheep, the earlier they breed, the more lambs they have over a lifetime. The live longer and are better breeders. I think the same holds true for cattle. I have been breeding heifers like this for about 6 years. [/QUOTE]
