At a few of the jackpot shows that I attended, some of the judges said that my steer was too green and lacked rib width. I was hoping that with time he would develop and get wider. However, over time his shoulders have gotten broader but he's still lacking that rib width and shape so he looks really weird currently. What would be a good feed, feed supplement, or nutrition ratios to change his diet so that he starts to fill out?

It would help if you posted a picture. What does he weigh, how much is he eating a day, is he on a finisher or a developer, what brand of feed are you feeding, does he get hay or some other form of roughage?
