[QUOTE="mlazyj, post: 876951, member: 17406"] I would not buy 250# calves , your asking for trouble . 350# min . Your profit is made on cheap gain ie your grass . The best use of your grass as was mentioned before is rotational grazing . The least amount of feed you buy the better , best to stick a decent pellet in front of them to get them going ,post weaning then graze them , if your pasture starts to get weak , supplement with hay . Down side of heifers is they are going spend some energy cycling and your rate of gain is going to suffer . Your going to want to hold them untill they are 800 plus pounds . [/QUOTE]
