Currently trying to estimate the weight on a group of steers.
Hypothetically Speaking: At start,
The Animals:
Group of 650# steers.
Genetics range from really good to just ok.
Body condition is “framey” but NOT skeletal.
The Diet:
Unlimited pasture grass and water.
2# of cattle cubes per head five times per week.
The Climate:
90 to 100 degrees daytime highs with 50% or more humidity.
Pasture has plenty of shade.
Taking into account the above scenario, I have two questions:
1. After one month how much are the steers going to average per head?
2. What is the average daily rate of gain going to be?
