Jul 23, 2008. Erik Fankhouser: Biggest Calves Ever! Erik The House Fankhouser interviewed last weekend at the Master Nationals in Pittsburgh by Dave Palumbo of MD. Erik will make his pro debut 4 weeks from now on August 16th at the Europa Supershow in the Dallas Convention Center.
In the wild, birth occurs in the dry months, but in captivity, births can happen year-round. The mother delivers a single calf while standing upright. At birth, calves weigh 104-154 pounds (47-70 Kg), and stand 72-76 inches (183-193 cm) tall. Calves grow about 1.2 inches (3 cm) per day during the first week, and are 10 feet (3 m) tall by age 1. Calves can walk within an hour of birth, and usually can run within 24 hours.
