Answer 12

That depends on where they are. There is an area along the Gulf Coast starting East of Corpus Christi, Texas and runs well in to Alabama it varies from 100 miles to 400 miles inland. In this area the grass is 98% water. All cattle all smaller in this area. Experts recommend to commercial cattlemen not to use more than an 1100 pound cow in this area. They say because of the weak grasses a  higher weight cow cannot take care of herself raise a calf and breed back  to have another calf next year. If you go North or West of this area they can use a cow 200-300 lbs. heaver. Old timers say that the original Texas Longhorns weighed between 500-800 lbs., so they did well along the Gulf Coast. Today's Texas Longhorns in this area weigh 700 - 1000 lbs. When you go North or West you will see heaver Texas Longhorns. There the grass is 96% or 94% water Cows in those areas get 2 to 3 times the nutriments cows  in each mouthful of grass. If you take a cow from this area North or West  in 1or 2 generations her offspring will be the same size as the cows in that area.  If  you bring a cow from there, here her offspring in 1 or 2 generations will be the same size as cows in this area. Texas Longhorns look smaller than they weigh, because they have less fat. Red meat or muscle takes up less space than fat. Its the same reason a 300 pound football player looks smaller than a 300 pound, football watcher .
