[QUOTE="john250, post: 279648, member: 4406"] I buy yearling bulls at the Indiana test station from time to time. They will sell 100+ bulls at a sale, and 1250 lb to 1450 lb is the weight range. I don't consider them fat at that weight. A young bull should be a growin' machine. I like to see 4 lb/gain/day. My customers (feedlots) like to see that, too. The test station offers more data than a slow witted boy like me can absorb. EPD's for several traits. And an index rating, which while it is flawed by nature is usefull for eliminating some choices.
