Cattle Weaning Weights Linked to Higher Grade in Early Studies
Texas A&M animal scientists report a clear link between high weaning weight and higher calf grade in 929 Hereford and Angus calves. Fancy calves averaged 442 pounds at weaning versus 413 pounds for all. heifers tended to grade higher than bulls. Cows aged 2 to 3 and over 10 produced lighter calves than 4 to 9 year olds. yearling gain aligned with weaning weight in select herds. Early results suggest selecting replacements by weaning weight may not lower herd quality.
