[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 545679, member: 13"] You're getting smarter, Mike. Asking for specifics now, not just general questions. I've taught you well. :D Here's a link to the latest OBI test report. Several bulls gained 6+ pounds per day. Below that is the link to the ultrasound report on the same test. Bull 7323 gained 6.30 lbs per day. That's on a 112 day test, not 84. He also has a marbling score of 4.19, about 6 if he was a steer. That's certainly above average for marbling. Go ahead and argue about what's "high" and what's not, but the bulls are there, [b]in the Angus breed[/b], to gain well in the feedlot and marble. As Rod says, it's up to the producers whether they want to pay for them or not.
