[QUOTE="edrsimms, post: 664730, member: 10970"] You are very welcome for the info. All I am saying is that I understand that the FCR is higher between 7 and 12-13 months of age, but there is more to finishing cattle than getting them to a pre-deternined weight. They need the "MATURITY" to grade where we want them to and if you could keep them until they reach 800 lbs then send them to the feedyard their time on feed would greatly decrease (100 days max) which will save you money in the long run and they will have the [u]maturity[/u] they need to grade med choice YG2. if I knew more about your calving season and where you were I could better understand what you are working with.
