[QUOTE="StrojanHerefords, post: 1846802, member: 42988"] I think it would be better to buy open yearling heifers in the fall and finish them just before their second birthday. At that point they have grown enough frame to finish out quickly and a lot of times they will bring the same price as a calf a year younger. I when feeding out animals on full feed, I would limit the amount of hay they are given as high levels of fiber don't work help digesting the starch in corn. [/QUOTE]
