Building a Brood Cow - Herd Quitter Minute

[@maximilianmargraf5501]

When you say wean 50% of her own body weight, what age of the calf are we talking about? 6 months when you have to start taking out the bull calves or more like 9-10 months?

I’ve had Aberdeens that look close to this and at 6 months were more like 400 , and didn’t get to the 600 till about 10 months i can’t tell exactly what breed this is… but 50 % in what time is my question too my angus get to 50% body weight in 7 months

Average age is 6 months -- Calve March-April, Wean first week in October.

@@PharoCattleCompany alright, thank you. I heard the 50% at weaning also from Johann Zietsmann but he also didn’t specify exactly when.
