[QUOTE="mnmtranching, post: 685646, member: 3937"] We call them "fed cows" and feeding cows is common. But certainly not aged cows, aged cows won't gain efficiently even on grain let alone putting weight on with roughage only. The cows to look for at a sale for feeding should be with full frame say 3-7 years old. Just off the calf, thin but other wise healthy. Bought in Oct-Dec as cow numbers going to slaughter are at a peak. Buy the 1100 hundred pound cows in the low .40's Sell the kill cows in Mar-Apr weighing 1350 at .55. [/QUOTE]
