[QUOTE="Mountaintown Creek Ranch, post: 1828615, member: 42313"] We have cows that are up to 1,500 lb. I think our smallest is 1100 and she is still a heifer. Those cows get fed developer mix everyday in small amounts, high fat tub and high mag mineral. Most of the size comes through years of genetic modification using AI because we can't afford those expensive bulls. I believe our best hanging weight was 885 for the 7/8 Wagyu x Angus F4 steers. Try not to get them too fat...they don't need it. Although in The last 5 years cost of high-end Wagyu semen has got ridiculous. It's not unusual to see the high end Wagyu semen go in the high five figures I think the record was $105,000 for a single straw. We're in a specialty market so we try to drop 2 calves a month. Our goal is to process 2 a month which makes for a pain in the butt calving year-round, but it allows us more even dispersal for our customers. [/QUOTE]
