[QUOTE="preston39, post: 90831, member: 1487"] flaboy, We began a program a few years ago whereby we segregate two moms and calves in the spring into a grass field by themselves. They are given the preventitive shots only. They are provided with minerals only and no grain. We do two just in case one needs treatment during the period. We delay mom's breeding by about 2 months. This gives us a longer nursing period for enhanced growth and termainal condition/size. The one we don't harvest for personal use is always spoken for with a list left over. We give neighbors some here and there...and ask for their honest opinions....without them knowing details of our program. The general opinion is that it is excellent beef.(not withstanding the fact it was free) We think it is better beef...more tender... than corn fed based on our experience. (Keep in mind we are starting with a good Angus gene) :roll: ;-) [/QUOTE]
