I sold my F2 black and baldie steers yesterday. I had never had a scale to feed with until this year. I planned on feeding 4lbs distillers and all the hay they could eat.
Hay mixture was 6 bales of hay that was mostly dried cheatgrass, 6 bales of average hay that a cow would eat OK if it was cold and 2 bales of very good hay millett. Distillers came out to 3.76 per day and going off the fact they were only eating 21.8 total pounds per day I thought they would weigh 725.
My jaw hit the floor when the main bunch came in the ring at 829. Overall average was 816. The best part was 92% went in one sort.
