This all depends on the breed. The largest breed, being the Chianina, have often been known to weigh upwards of 2 tons (~4000 lbs). The smallest breed, the Dexter, will only grow to be as heavy as 1100 lb for bulls. The average weight for a Dexter bull is only around 900 lb.

Bulls are always going to be larger and weigh more than cows, and mature animals weigh more than younger ones.

Young calves, from nose to rump, can be about one meter (3 ft) long. Mature cows, from nose to rump, are often 6 to 7 ft long; bulls can be a little longer by a foot or two.
