[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1823280, member: 968"] They weighed 580#, 645#, & 610# when they were weaned and worked. I calculated they ate 2 Ton of WSC each from start to finish. My corn is $280/Ton, so $560 in grain. They eat free choice grass thru the summer with their grain and then large round bales (shared with another group of cattle) last 1.5 months. Also, maybe less than $100 in Ration Builder (32% protein pellet) $560 + $100 = $660 x 5 steers = $3300 1 steer 802# HCW x $4 = $3208 That looks awesome, but you also have to consider the value of the steers at weaning - and your time. Still, nice profit for 6 months labor thru the summer months. [/QUOTE]
