Weaning Weight Performance Entry
To record calf weaning weight and other relevant traits for both the calf and its dam, you will need to access the Weaning Weight (WW) performance entry screen. This screen is for entering and viewing performance traits relevant to the 200 Day Growth values.
How to report Weaning Weight
- Open the Inventory Overview screen.
- Select the WW link corresponding to the year and calving season you want to report on.
- After the WW link is clicked the Weaning screen will open and the recorded, active calves will be listed in an Incomplete list.
- Click on an animal in the Incomplete list (their information will become highlighted in blue).
- Enter their weaning weight information and other relevant traits into the performance input boxes found below the Incomplete list.
- Remember if the calf was sold or died before weaning weights are taken select a proper Disposal Code, otherwise the calf will remain on the Incomplete list.
- After the weaning weight information is entered click the Update button.
- The calf's record will then be moved to the Completed list.
Note: Relevant dam traits may also be available for entry on the weaning weight screen. These will be traits which are traditionally measured at similar times to calf weaning reporting e.g. Mature cow weight.
