The mature weight of a Red Angus cow ranges from 1000 to 1500 lbs. Some breeders like to have their cows a bit bigger, with an average weight of 1400 to 1800 lbs.
Heifers, on the other hand, are growing animals. Most heifers at weaning age should weigh in and around 500 to 600 lbs. At 15 months of age, which is around the time they are to be bred, they should be 60% or more of the average cowherd's weight. On average, though, they would weigh around 750 to over 800 lbs.
