We currently buy about 20 feeder steers a year and pasture feed them for about 9-12 months. When they get around 600-700 lbs, we sale them back. We buy them at 300-400 lbs, and are all pasture fed.
We have never given them growth hormones before, but I think we are going to start. What is the best growth hormone for our operation? I have done some research on this, but there are a number of them to choose from. What kind and how much of the active ingredient do we need for more and faster weight gain? Is it the more active ingredient, the more weight gain? Any tips on hormones would be appreciated. And is this a good idea or not.
Thanks. :help:
