[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 676189"] The feed I picked up is the same mix that the local ranchers are using for finishing their personal freezer steers. I dont know what the TDM level is, but if they are using it, good enough for me. Also, with all the rain we have had here in Fl lately, the 2 steers can keep up with the pasture growth. Lots of seed heads. We only have a little "farmette" and they are on 3 acres. I dont think roughage is an issue. It was an issue back in the fall and winter, and may account for their slow growth. That and I think they were pulled from momma too early. They are filling out nicely now, and I can tell the difference in the last week since I posted the topic. I have been trying to find the balance between feed, grass, and my wallet and still learning. Although I do get $4/lb hanging weight (butcher fees inlc.) I do them in pairs, one for my family, and on for sale. I market them as close to organic as you can get without certifying them, and have the 2nd one presold already. But thats another topic.
