My daughter has a Angus steer we are feeding for her to show and I need ideas as to how to fill him out better. He weights about 750-800lbs and he just isn't filled out in his hips. He gets about 15lbs of show grain in the morning with 10lbs of cooked corn total 25lbs and then the same at night. He has free choice hay and water all the time. Just need to know if there is more that I can give him?

What is the protein / fat content of your feed? 50 pounds of feed a day is a bit high, that's over 6% of his body weight. I would cut the corn, worm him every 45 days, and make sure he is getting the needed exercise each day. A picture might help.
