[QUOTE="Engler, post: 439357, member: 4110"] Yes if you leave him out for a while he will have some compensatory(sp?) gain and will probably do better on the rate of gain. But if you bring him in and he can weigh 650 by Feb then he gains 2.8 until fair that puts him bumping 1200#. If you leave him out until then and he's only weighing 550 then he has to gain 3.34 lb/d to have the same end weight. Even at that weight it is probably going to be tough to run in a market beef show, but a 1200# steer has a lot better shot than an 1100 pounder. [/QUOTE]
