[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 624583, member: 13"] And that's where (bolded text) I disagree with them. From the links I put out, the agreement seems to be that calves start laying down marbling as soon as they're born. They must have more quality food available to them every day of their lives than they need for their day to day growth to continue to marble. Agressive implanting in feedlots can slow marbling because the implant boosts growth and that stresses the calf's ability to eat enough to grow and still marble. I sorta think your own "marbling" is actually "backfat"; I know mine is. :) [/QUOTE]
