I'm thinking about raising calves on strictly a grass diet all the way to the butcher (versus finishing them on grain). My question is, given two calves that were identical in feed efficiency numbers and genetics, how much longer, on average would it take the grass finished calf to mature (for butchering) than the corn finished calf? ( I may be making a false assumption that the grass finished calf will take longer to mature) Thanks!
