crooked horn
Member
I dropped these 2 heifers at the processor yesterday. Since I am not good at remembering to get pictures, the pics of the horned heifer are about a month old, but my wife did get 1 good pic of the other one in the trailer.
For those that are interested in the numbers, they were on whole corn for 177 days. They were given a limited amount of hay when fed twice daily and finished up eating about 20 lbs of corn with a couple pounds of bull ration to keep them interested and 3/4 pound of ADM beef trate each per day.
I should have the weights from the processor on Tuesday and I should have steak pics by the end of the month. Any thoughts on finish or guesses on dressing percentage? For reference I would guess live weight at between 1100 and 1200 lbs.
