Birth date unknown, when I got him (steer) in Aug. he was weaned and approximately
3 months old. That would put his birthdate around May/ June.
To look at him, he is a very nicely proportioned Brahman.
Using girth x girth x length / 300 method, he comes in at 703 lbs.
His whole purpose is freezer beef, time is not a problem. He has 3 acres
to trim of good Bahia grass, and gets at least 3 and sometimes 6 lbs of
grain a day. He does currently share his pasture with a 2 month old jersey/beef
cross being weaned.
Do I give him the summer or cut my losses and butcher now? 703 @ 1 year is
pathetic don't you think?
