[QUOTE="Lomac, post: 1399740, member: 21024"] Thank you. We've implanted before but have nvr liked doing it. We typically give our steers 30 pills or so a day (human 3mg) for about 6-7 days leading up to a show to take the edge off. Have nvr used it for ADG increaser. I'll look into the melatonin implants and that stabilized rice bran. I don't think we need a heavy implant. Just enough to bump him along for the days he drops off 1/2 his intake at a show and day or 2 after coming home (which typically happens to us). Need every day to count. His ADG is 3.8 right now. If we didn't show and could hold that it would put him at 1367 final show day. Our projected final weight from possession day was 1375....so we would be in the ball park. Contemplating maybe dropping 2 of the shows to keep him on track. Decisions Decisions [/QUOTE]
