[QUOTE="somn, post: 483129, member: 3721"] Well you would certainly be surprised then because a calf fed holstien fed properly will yield as well as any beef breed and grade as well as any beef breed and they will do it consistantly unlike most the crossbred mongrels of todays beef. If you would like I can get you a number to IBP and they could give you a unbiased look into the yielding and grading results of todays calf fed holstiens. But most times when people come here and state that a holstien steer will only yield 55% or less usually it is a great indicator of how little they understand the breed itself and how to feed them. Most times their history with the breed is they had one once they threw it out on grass and then killed it weighing 700 pounds. And said it wasn't any good and the meat was light pink. Well what did you expect you killed a calf. [/QUOTE]
