[QUOTE="edrsimms, post: 691362, member: 10970"] Ed, you ARE the man! That is amazing performance from a set of cattle. :shock: And all without purchased inputs Well my intention was to get some of you people to open your eyes and be independent of the big Packers that have been throwing you under the bus since you began in the cattle business. What I see is a whole industry made up of individuals just like you that look forward to every year the big Packers throw you under the bus. Someone has instilled in your mind that grain-fed beef is the best and you court it like a used car salesman courts any potential buyer. You are the Clark Griswald's of the cattle industry. Those very Packers that buy and process your calves are laughing at you every year- All I am saying is why can't you be a tad more independent. How many meat consumers do you need to make a good living>? IBP needs the whole USA and beyond-- and what do you get as the producer? >> (thrown under the Bus) Especially if you are a small producer (under 500 cows) i believe you should be doing grass-fed beef or if you feel the need to use a little grain at finishing as my good friend TexasBred does -- they have a special designation for you called "Natural" LOL Ed I gotta go check a few cows --I cant be here all day answering posts.........
