[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 448029, member: 4353"] That depends on too many things to give a hard and fast answer. On my forage if an unimplanted steer without supplement continues to gain at 2.54lbs/day I wouldn't be too dissappointed. Would expect it to be closer to 2.8 if there is enough good grass with legumes. On alfalfa the gain will be quite a bit higher. Typically a calf will have a slump shortly after weaning and really start gaining fast (compensatory gain) at 11-12 months [/QUOTE]
