Cattle Corner / Life on the Small Farm. Fairly regular discussions about raising livestock on a small farm, mainly registered miniature Herefords, and (sometimes but not often)current landscape information you may not know but can really use.

How big are they full grown?
Probably the most frequently asked question , (after "how much?") is how big are they when full grown? Well, pictures say a thousand words, so here is a picture of myself with a 2 year old heifer "Babette" She is considered full grown, and although I have not measured her lately, I would say her frame score would be 000. She is roughly half the size of her mother, "Miss Piggy", which amazes me at how much the size of these animals can be reduced in just one generation with the right bull!
