[QUOTE="dun, post: 25849, member: 34"] Depends on the breed (Dexter) and the quality of the grass that they are being finished on. Our heifers, traditional british cross breeds winter on grass, hay if there is snow, without grain unless we have a very severe cold spell. As yearlings (12 months) they will weigh in the neighborhood of 700-800 lbs. Early maturing breeds should in theory finish faster on grass, and if that grass would be winter wheat, annual rye, rye grass, etc., they would finish even faster and heavier. dun [/QUOTE]
