[QUOTE="SBMF 2015, post: 1846640, member: 39695"] So if I’m following correctly they’re only getting roughly 10.4lbs of corn/day plus brewers grain? That’s only about 1% of their body weight in concentrates. That’s a growing ration. That’s great for up to 900 lbs on hfrs and 1,000lbs on strs (roughly) . Then turn them on. 2% of their body weight, limit their roughage . At that point you have got most of the frame growth out of them and your just adding muscle and fat. Like others have mentioned adding a little protein would be good too. [/QUOTE]
