[QUOTE="SF, post: 120272, member: 1171"] They were on a mixed ration of Acco's Beefmaker Textured 12 mixed with corn. 1/2 and 1/2. Just been so hot for the past couple of months they haven't been gaining much during the past few weeks. Those who have offered the compliments, I thank you. I think a few more days on feed would have certainly added more backfat, but the lack of marbling I think is genetic. More feed may have helped some, but I still don't think they would have made choice. Bringing in a couple more from the same bull. Going to change up the feed ration a bit. Plus we will be going into cooler weather. Shooting for a Feb/Mar finish time frame. Thanks again for the compliments. I don't learn much from the great results, it is only the poor results that provide me new learning experiences. Will have some calves born in fall of 06 from my new bull. Hopefully he will produce better carcass results. If so, we are going to begin collecting semen from him. Probably not going to with bull that sired these two calves. Make my mind up for sure in Feb.
