[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 541"] My butcher said to look for the "doughnut" around the tail area; he said there will be a roll there. He also is unfamiliar with "Gerts", and so isn't sure about the fullness they might or might not get in the brisket, near the chest floor. I don't want to think that I am wasting feed, but a couple more months of feed is worth the 15 months that I have already been feeding. He has always been grained lightly, plus had full feed of premium alfalfa. Bottom line: If he is only at 1160ish should I cut the grain as long as there is not enough roll around the tail, and see if I can get a little more growth? I am feeding about 30lbs per day of a 4-Way feed. The dealer is unable to get a finisher. I also read on another Q-A that 50,000 IU of vitamin E would help in the finishing. Do you think he is getting enough feed. Should I be feeding 3 times per day? (Sorry, but I have quite an investment here now!)
