[QUOTE="Bez+, post: 617972, member: 6797"] Well, I have knocked more than a couple down at that weight. Steaks are smaller and roasts are smaller. Some folks want them that way. In fact a lot of folks want those cuts smaller. Quality is still there - remember, the older folks and the DINKS are only feeding two - and appetites are not always huge. In fact you might find - like us - that more folks want this than the full sized finished steer or heifer. Suggest you do this as part of a marketing test - you will not be disappointed. Tell those folks you will stand behind the meat and ask them for THEIR opinions. We can sell more grass fed - not fully finished - we help with corn - light weights than we can heavy fats. Oh, the meat will be excellent. If you do this charge them a 5 cent premium. Call it baby beef - and no, those that want one that size will not cringe at the name. As for kill and slaughter - I am of the opinion that those are good terms. If they are coming to the farm they already know meat does not come on a styrofoam platter wrapped in shrink wrap. As you wish of course - but I stand by the terms - and people still come to our place. Good luck in your future plans. Cheers Bez+ [/QUOTE]
