Beet Pulp

I have heard that Beet Pulp adds brisket on beef cattle and I was wondering if that was true?  ???

Beet pulp is used for fill which has to do with their mid section and guts. Never heard of it causing brisket that is usually from fat deposits. We feed beet pulp to everything and it is a great way to hold animals because it makes them feel full.

Thanks that is so helpful. We feed beet pulp to because it fills them up.

It's basically pure fiber, so imo theres no way it could add brisket. Never had that problem.

IMO Beet pulp can add fat to the front lower 1/3 I have seen it happen, but don't know what causes it possibly the molasses in it.  We try to use cottonseed hulls to add fill when were trying to hold one.
