[QUOTE="somn, post: 551261, member: 3721"] Three years ago there wasn't a beef breed in the entire nation that could hold a candle to a holstien for net profit in a feedyard. Feed efficiency isn't any worse or better on a average than any other breed when fed a proper diet. Another advantge holstiens have over beef breeds is consistancy. A higher % holstiens grade choice than do the beef cattle I have sold. Less prime but more choice. In case you haven't figured it out your cab is a marketing scheme and nothing more. There are other breeds I would rather eat first. The american consumer will believe anything and pay more for it just because they believe it will be better for them. Ever heard of bottled water. CAB people are buying it by the case. Wonder why? One thing I have always noticed is most people when shooting their mouths off about how bad holstiens are don't have a clue what needs to be in a holstien steer feed ration. They just shoot off their mouths running the breed down. Care to tell us what you put into your holstien feed rations and why? [/QUOTE]
