[QUOTE="somn, post: 505985, member: 3721"] Breeds are angus, lims, sims, chars, and holstiens. My pasture consists of cement and dirt mounds not much cost to maintain that. The ration changes throughout their life mainly consisting of corn, ddgs, wdg, corn silage, ground grass hay, and protien pellets. Just how short of time do you think it should take to finish cattle. I'm sure you have a extensive history in running a feedlot maybe you could do as Chris B suggested and go around offering your wisdom to the big feedyards let them know they are doing it all wrong. You may have a feeling I'm not figuring all my costs and I know for certain that I am if I wasn't I would already be out of business. If you can't make a profit right now selling your beef at $1.50 per hanging pound you need to rethink raising cattle. [/QUOTE]
