[QUOTE="J&D Cattle, post: 1338520, member: 18854"] We fed them along from 350 up but really didn't start pushing much feed until 550 or so. We normally butcher anywhere from 900lbs to 1200lbs depending on when somebody is ready. Had several that don't have big freezers ask for the smaller 900lbs. I normally fed them pretty slow, starting at 6lbs and would increase by 2lbs every 30 days or so. I'm sure I could have ramped them up quicker but never did. Jersey's would not be a quick turn around but I've never had better beef. [/QUOTE]
