18 months is full weight
Under 12 months is veal, so you were correct that most don't end up as veal.
But they count as calves until adulthood, which is nearer age 4. They're normally killed for meat at about 18 months or six in human years. They do continue to put on weight into adulthood, but less rapidly than in the first 18 months, so you get a better return on investment by killing them while they're still calves, because you've saved half your costs but got 3/4 of the weight in meat, and the meat is more tender and marketable.
So not quite full weight, and definitely still killed as a calf, not as an adult.
almost all beef is slaughtered around 18 months, male or female. that's full weight.
It's slaughter weight, not full weight. Lots of female cows are kept alive for another few years for milk and calving.
it seems you're splitting hairs
Says the person who has been splitting hairs for nearly 24 hours. For reference, here's our original interaction:
They're slaughtered at 18 months, and that's before adulthood. I was correct. You continue to work very hard to find some way to make this correct statement sound incorrect.
it's the average lifespan of beef cattle. whether it's splitting hairs to insist on the moment of adulthood.
Case in point
