Is it realistic that an animal without horns would weigh 100# more when finished than one with horns (assuming same breed and same age at slaughter)? Does growing horns take that much away from the animal?

That should teach you to visit another board! With me as the only exception, this board only allows people on it that know what they are talking about. ;-)
