[QUOTE="MrBilly, post: 50673, member: 87"] We hand feed black Angus influenced steers for customers each year. We use a custom feed which is given to them twice per day. It is just shy of 1/2 crimped corn, has oats , soybean Meal, cottonseed hulls, molasses, vitamins, etc. We feed at 2.5-3.0% of body wt. and we go slowly taking 5 to 6 months to finish - we use visual inspection and weight to determine when to quit. Most are right at 1150 lb at harvest. They they are harvested and dry aged for 17 days, wow is it good. The animals remain on pasture and get free choice hay once the grass goes dormant. We do this in the fall and winter only. Billy :clap: [/QUOTE]
