Mature cows average around 1200 to 1400 lbs, though smaller-framed cattle can be found in this breed. Mature bulls average around 2200 to 2500 lbs, though, like cows, they can be found at a lighter weight and smaller frame size. Weight of an animal directly correlates with frame size, so the bigger the animal, the heavier it will be.
They can typically weigh anywhere from 700 pounds to 1500 pounds. It depends on the age and diet of the animal.
Shorthorn cattle (referring to the beef type, not the Milking Shorthorn [dairy]) are thicker, bigger and more bulkier than Longhorns are. Much of the Shorthorn breed are polled, and come in only three colours: red, white and roan. Shorthorns were historically more commonly known as Durham cattle, which had horns that only had a spread of about two to three feet. Longhorn cattle (assuming you're referring to Texas Longhorns and not English Longhorns) come in wider variation of colourations, from all black to dun to speckled black and white or red and white, and near everything in between. TL's have long horns, ranging from 6 to 7 feet in length, more commonly the former and point out and up. They are commonly not as big and beefy as Shorthorns are, being more rangy-looking than most beef cattle. English Longhorns are always a red roan with their horns pointing downwards and in. They are less common in North America than either shorties or TL's.

Shorthorns are infamous for the genetic abormalities Tibial Hemimelia (TH) and Pulmonary Hypoplasia (PHA) which must be tested for in all Shorthorn breeding stock. This is why the Shorthorn breed has not gained as much ground as other breeds like Herefords and Angus cattle have.
