    What are you trying to produce with this heifer? Club calves, show stock?  We had hoped to get al clubby that could eventually be shown etc, etc.  But, if it is best to keep her with a angus then that is what we'll do.  As others have said, here in Florida we have smaller animals than in...

    Yes, this is a real post. I only thought of heatwave because, I see his name here so much. I thought she was good enough to be bred at this time. Obviously she isnt.  I certainly dont want to do anything that would cause her or a baby calf any harm.

    no it isnt a typo. she is 775 @ 16 mos. 10/07.   Wow, I have obviously not been feeding her enough.  I dont think she is small weight because she wont eat. We feed her about 15 #'s of grain per day. and only give her hay occasionaly.  ( I was told in the begininng, hay was a treat) BUT, I also...
