    Steer getting taller, but not filling out.

    I have a PB Angus steer that I am feeding close to 30# of feed to per day plus unlimited hay. He is getting taller but he is not filling out.

    What is too cold?

    I was just wondering what is too cold to wash calves? There's a show Saturday and I've been waiting for a day to get these calves washed and I'm running out of time. Unfortunetly I do not have an insulated barn or an indoor wash rack. What do you guys think? It's currently 12*, feels like -4.

    My Chi Steer -Ways to make sure he's not over done for fair?

    Here's a pic, he's 730 pounds and I feel like he's going to finish to early. I have cut him back to about 8 pounds of 1/3-1/3-1/3 from Kalmbach Feeds, and he's getting maybe two pounds...or a flake of grass only hay. He's a very sound steer...as of right now. I'm afraid at this point in the game...

    What Size Trailer Should We Buy?

    We will probably be hauling 8-10 head with 12 head probably at the most. We will have 2-3 chutes hopefully by the end of the season, a fan cage and a show box. What size trailer do you think we should buy? We figure AT LEAST 20 or 24'. What do you guys think.
