[QUOTE="Dave, post: 394036, member: 498"] GoodValley, I am south and west of Olympia. You are in a lot better beef selling area than I am. There is no shortage of potential customers up there. My bulls are angus. The cows.....well it is the rainbow coalition out there. At least one of every color. But the calves are all black or black baldies. To get them ready I would lock them up and grain them. How much and for how long really depends on the condition of the animal. That is kind of difficult to give advise on over the internet. But to start free choice hay and 10-15 pounds of grain a day. Another option is to sell grass fat beef. That can actually get as much or more of a premium in your neck of the woods. The 3 year old heifer might fit nicely into this category. I will PM you some other local tips. Dave [/QUOTE]
