[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1505480, member: 14585"] Holstein angus crosses make good beef. Start teaching them to eat right away by offering 18% texturized calf starter from the get go. weaning at 8 weeks = 200 lbs and grain self feeders usually don't come into play until after 650-750 lbs. No grass or hay until after they're 7 weeks old, feeding roughages too early, before the rumen is developed enough to properly digest it, just leads to 'hay bellies' and slows growth/performance.
