Hey folks, haven't peeked at these boards for a long while, but thought i would contribute ultrasound data for kicks.
My daughter and I took 3 of our non-show type Galloways (low frame scores) to Denver a couple of weeks ago. We had the white bull calf ultrasounded, age 9 mos, who had rec'd 8 weeks light grain feeding from mid-nov weaning til Denver show, and weighed probably close to 600 pounds. We were pleased with the results, since we sell beef, not legs. IMF: 2.93%, BF .08", REA 10.16 in. I guess we should have US'd the heifers too for kicks.
Apologies if this didn't end up in the right thread... pretty rusty at this.
I will try to figure out how to post photos and put one up for reference.
