[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 639437, member: 4362"] Anyone ever finished a calf with an extra large frame? I've never done this and was wondering if they have the same markers as other smaller framed cattle or do you need to look for something different? If so, what do you look for? Reason I ask is that my cattle normally finish out around 10-12 cwt. Tail head will have a nice roll in it, etc. I got one in the pen now that is from a terminal large framed bull and it is pushing 1500 lbs and doesn't look anywhere close to being finished. The guy that is doing my butchering says this calf would be his pick. (probably due to its length) But it doesn't look finished. It just looks big and its getting bigger every day. [/QUOTE]
