Not trying to stir **** but I have been to his place and talked with him privately many times, Ron is smarter than he let on here. Yes, I’m very aware that he rubbed people the wrong way. I get it. He mostly did it on purpose, I think he was bored.

Not our experience with shorthorns in the feedlots. Of course we use Canadian shorthorn genetics and not American show genetics. The biggest problem is they don’t qualify for cab when they are roan like my heifer above. The rest of our calves with her breeding are black. Heck we have 5/8...
My power has been out since Friday morning and the power company says it will be Wed. Before any hope of power coming back on. The storm got here and just stalled. 50 mph winds with 75 mph gust for 5 hours on top of 8 inches of rain. The ground got soft and our trees just couldn’t handle it...
When you come to Cincinnati start a post on here and I will buy you a beer at the stadium. It's a little less than 2 hours from my house.

The steers are done enough. Could they stand to put on another 100lbs, probably. Will it make the meat that much better, NO! And the cost to get them there for somebody feeding two steers is not worth it.
