[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1835590, member: 24816"] Most of what we feed out are processed at 16-17 months but have done one at 13 months up to over 2 years on one. I build mine up slow to as much as they will eat without leaving any in the trough for 3-4 months. I feed a few pounds of mixed feed of 1/3 cracked corn, 1/3 soy hull pellets 1/3 corn gluten pellets, from weaning until bringing them in to fatten then slowly transition to mixing shelled corn as half or more of the ration ( this helps to dilute the corn gluten in the mixed feed as it is said to give beef an off flavor if it is a significant portion of the feed.) Our cattle that we have processed are mostly Angus, Hereford or BWF. [/QUOTE]
