I have 2 calves; a may heifer almost 600 lbs, and a june steer about 500 lbs, I am thinking of butchering in a few weeks. They are both still nursing. I read on here someone (JSCATTLE maybe) said it was the best meat they ever had. I was wondering should I wait till the day before taking them in before pulling them off mama or would it hurt to pull them off a few days earlier and just give them good hay (they are not getting any grain). Also looking for advice on how to get them cut or would it be the same as a bigger animal. Thanks
