[QUOTE="AAOK, post: 255296, member: 861"] The fat content in grains is what "burns" the hair. Most of the time, corn gets the blame. However, you're not going to get a Show Steer up to snuff without grain. Just feed a National Brand Show Mix at about 3% of body weight, and you should be fine. Hopefully, you'll get to the point at the end when you will need to hold him back. Hair quality and growth is about 2/3 genetics, and 1/3 daily care (no mater what you hear, bushing is ten times more important than blowing). Rinse and brush (Rice Root Brush) every day, keep him out of the sunlight, and under fans through the day. [/QUOTE]
