[QUOTE="Stickney94, post: 1828793, member: 37941"] Limited experience using Byergo Black Magic. I can't vouch for the feed efficiency as I don't have the grow safe system. Frame size has crept smaller in angus nationaly (imo) so Byergo are likely going to increase frame size but my results haven't been as large as I would have guessed. The weaned calves I've had have been in the top % -- average of the sire group 650 lbs. I only really have data on one slaughter animal. I don't feed them aggressively and the steer gained 2.62 lbs per day from weaning to slaughter. I have limited data on two other slaughter animals (heifers that didn't take AI) that would have been on feed for 90 days or so and gained at >2 lbs per day. The Byergo's have been nice cattle. Docile, easy handling. Also, if you have questions reach out to them directly, they were very responsive to my questions and responded quickly. My only complaint has been that 2 of the 4 heifers we've tried to keep haven't taken AI. But I wouldn't hesitate to use their genetics again. [/QUOTE]
