We have two July-08 born steers and are trying to get them ready for our fair in mid-Sept. 09.  Any advice on how to get them up to 1250lbs. in that time frame?

talk w/ your local feed dealer on the best products to use.
Also feed them enough so that they clean it up & then slowly add more.

Good luck

red's rite if you need them to gain that fast they gotta be hungry. feeding to much at a time could spoil their appetitte and you'll be playing catch up all year. i know one thing people tend to over look is clean fresh readily accesible water when eating. good luck hope it works out for ya :)
