I'm just going to through out a guess. Tell me how far off.
11 month old 3/4 Red Angus. going on feed for 100 days, will weigh around 1275 at that time. Will grade high choice or prime.

17 month old runt. Only about 950 lbs (guessing). The sooner I can get the butcher out the sooner he'll go in the freezer. Might be a week on grain, might be a month.

From the looks of his brisket & tailhead, I'd say he is close to being finished. I'll bet he will be some good eatin'. Just let us know when the cookout is.

It's just that when people talk about grassfed genetics they forget that there are some tradtional breeds that will do the job
Limomike":96v4sj92 said:"Kirby" looks pretty well finished to me also. Might want to just feed him out for a week or so, before you butcher him though.

??????????????? Great genetics?
And he's a 17 month old runt that weighs 950?
We know nothing about his carcass/beef value but he's got great genetics?
Just goes to show that pictures of "Fat" animals on here carry the day every time. :roll: :roll:

Not being argumentative, and finish is a relative term, but I have never seen any healthy cattle that WOULDN'T finish on grass.
