I enjoyed this video very much. Thank you. I am waking up to the reality that it is time to change where and how we get our food. I am learning a lot with your videos and am encouraged by the fact that there are people like you all who will help us get back to the basics. 👏👏👏
Great video and very educational. Wish they did a mandatory ag class in schools. People need to know where their food comes from. A wrapped plastic container in a cooling fridge at a store is not it. I am a farm raised girl and can appreciate it. Thank you for sharing. much love.
Great video... 👍 If I may ask what was the weight of the cow after 60 days of cob feed and what was the net carcass weight, Would appreciate your response!!!!
@anasmalik8592 As a reminder, she was 36 months at butcher due to the way we hold back heifers for a year before breeding, then she ultimately went through a full breeding season before being identified as a butcher animal. Live Weight was 1,540 pounds, Rail/Carcass Weight was 936 pounds, Total Packaged meat weighed 442.5 pounds. This was close to our typical approximation of about 1/3 meat for a live weight animal.
@HashknifeRanch sorry one last question how much additional weight did canckles put on after the 60 days feed ?? Would it be fair to assume around 265 pounds??
Hello @HashknifeRanch I hope you are doing well A quick question on the COB feed... would you be kind enough to tell me how much feed was canckles consuming on a daily basis (approx how many pounds) I thank you kindly!!!
Thanks for the question! She was butchered at 36 months as a dry heifer, live weight was 1,540 pounds, rail/dress weight was 936 pounds, and packaged weight was 442.5 pounds.
Thank you very much for the detailed answer. As far as I understand, this is exactly what I was looking for. I understood, this is a young cow that has given birth. I want to know this: If a heifer gives birth and dried, and then is fattened, will the quality of its meat decrease? (will be butchered like this ages)@@HashknifeRanch
@alikuyucu146 Actually, she never had a calf that is what it means to be "dry". We found out she never conceived during breeding so we fattened her for butcher. Normally, we butcher steers (castrated male bovine) and butcher them at about 24-30 months. Butchered cows after giving birth to calves usually become burger since the meat tends to be tougher and is not as tender

@anasmalik8592 we estimate approximately 3.5 pounds a day during the process, so she likely gained about 230 pounds since it was a 67 day feed out
@HashknifeRanch thanks a million 😊
As a cattle feeder this one’s a piece of cake, she’s going on 3 years old. feed one out in 24 months, I have steers 20 months old bigger than her.
The difference between heifers and steers developing muscle mass creates that carcass weight discrepancy you point out
nice video, what's the name of the breed again ?
We raise Red Angus cattle
Hello @HashknifeRanch
I hope you are doing well
A quick question on the COB feed... would you be kind enough to tell me how much feed was canckles consuming on a daily basis (approx how many pounds)
I thank you kindly!!!
A good estimate is about 3 to 3.5 pounds per day
she will make some good beef, looks like you are getting some smoke from the rez fire, lucky so far, no smoke in Missoula
Our customer said the steaks off of her were fantastic!
Do you keep her in pin?
Thank you 😊
really great video
age, live weight and dress please? thanks
