[QUOTE="Oldtimer, post: 534285, member: 97"] I have a neighbor that runs about 10,000+ head--4-5000 pairs (calve in May-June on grass) and the rest as yearlings- both home raised and bought ....Today as I was riding thru my cows moving them to summer grass- and trying to cut out their yearlings that had gotten in with mine-along with putting in a dozen of theirs that had gotten out on the highway-- I noticed how many of their yearling steers were quite a bit smaller/lighter than my yearling heifers-- but remembered that they had told me several times how these lighter cattle were the ones that put on the most weight when turned on grass during the summer and made them the most money.... I know some of those yearlings didn't weigh 500 lbs..... [/QUOTE]
