[QUOTE="Keren, post: 747159, member: 3195"] I think its important to note that not all of those big framed cattle are the type that need extra feeding. there are some that are very easy keeping. I've posted pics of this cow before, she is 7 frame (might even be a little bigger) but probably the easiest keeping animal on the place. She feeds 4 + calves and stays in fat condition on pasture/hay only [img]http://ranchers.net/photopost/data/500/medium/Murray_Greys_014.JPG[/img] [img]http://i385.photobucket.com/albums/oo293/Pacqio/Aus%20cattle%20shows/Mumsphotos15-09-07723-1.jpg[/img] On the opposite end of the scale is this girl, she's 6.5, probably our smallest. She doesnt foster calves like the other girl but she is always fat fat fat on nothing. [img]http://ranchers.net/photopost/data/500/medium/Murray_Greys_013.JPG[/img] [img]http://i385.photobucket.com/albums/oo293/Pacqio/Aus%20cattle%20shows/Mumsphotos15-09-07729-1.jpg[/img] Both are the type we strive for. I cant find the picture I wanted to put in, of a 6.8 frame girl we have. She doesnt get any supplement but she milks off her condition. Not as ideal as the other girls [/QUOTE]
