[QUOTE="Till-Hill, post: 1464499, member: 16547"] Sounds fine to me, unless heifers are going to/have the ability to mature into 1800# cows then you may be a tick shy. Our heifers adjusting yearling weights were 694-894 (actuals 660-806). Perfect for what I want. Ours are weaned into a dirt lot, no roof just wind break from North and West winds. Fed crappy first crop hay that's been outside and grain of 80/20 corn/ddg with 60# to a ton of balancer mineral for byproducts. 8#/hd/day till really cold then go to 8.5# and we back off grain by some then at yearling weight time or about 2 months pre breeding.
