[QUOTE="jkwilson, post: 487222, member: 969"] You can finish them together, but if you are trying to finish the steers and raise the heifers as replacements, you need to feed them separately. A finishing diet will put too much fat on a replacement heifer, which can limit their future milk production. If the heifers are going to be on feed, it needs to be a lower energy ration than the steers are getting. [/QUOTE]
