[QUOTE="SBMF 2015, post: 1708880, member: 39695"] Green yearlings are yearlings that have been running on grass or wheat pasture and haven't seen a lot of grain. They are learn and desirable to the feed lots because they are at a point where they have the frame and age that once you get them started good you can really push them hard. We used to be small by western standards, but we kept between 400-600 hd on feed depending on the time of year. You are correct, feeding cattle is definitely a numbers game. Sounds like your on to something, growing those calves out. If more people would start doing that, the cattle feeders would pay more. [/QUOTE]
