[QUOTE="Chocolate Cow2, post: 1487399, member: 32644"] what Stocker Steve said. I currently have a feeder steer-of unknown parentage-waiting to finish for the freezer-and he looks like it ain't ever gonna happen. But he is growing little horns :roll: That sucker keeps getting taller and thinner. He's getting the TMR from the feed truck, top dressing it with additional corn and has a big round bale of brome grass in his pen. He eats like crazy but is going to be 8 years old before he's ready to butcher. I recently bought a 16 month Angus bull private treaty. He's more grass genetics and weighed 1165. He was pushed more than I would have done if I'd raised him for myself but yours at those weights-especially the 4 weight one- wouldn't cut it. Simmental is a 'feedlot calf maker' requiring high quality feed-to my way of thinking-not a grass based animal. [/QUOTE]
