[QUOTE="brandonm_13, post: 624909, member: 7875"] Just for the record. I have very little back fat. It's actually on the other side. If I was killed, you wouldn't run out of bacon for a looooong time. This is kind of off topic, but has anyone noticed that the smaller framed cattle come from smaller land masses? Dexters- Ireland, Angus, shorthorn, hereford, Red poll, Jersey, Guernsey, etc.- British, Limousin, Charolais, Braunvieh, Brown Swiss, Holstein, Piedmontese, Gelbvieh, Chianina, Romagnola, Tarentaise, Simmental, Blonde de Aquitaine, etc.- Continental countries. I think those big continental breeds( which used to be a lot bigger) would marble just fine at whatever age is appropriate for them. If I remember correctly, cattle used to be killed at 3 years old and weighed 1-1.5 tons (and sometimes more). [/QUOTE]
