Implanted Cattle Photos

[UnbridledStallion]

This might sound like a strange request, but can anyone direct me to some photos that compare the appearance of implanted cattle with non-implanted (meaning they were fed the same, the same age, the same breed, but one was given implant(s) and the other was not)? I know there is a ton of research already done but I can't seem to find any comparison pictures on the internet, nor can I make my own due to town zoning laws (I'm on maybe a third of an acre).

Natural variation between one bovine and the next is going to account for more visually noticeable variation than you would observe in an implanted calf vs a non-implanted calf.

Anybody have pictures of staggy heifers (over implanted or used steer implants), or a picture showing cattle before and after Zilmax or optflex? And while not approved for horses, anyone have any luck using these products on horses to increase muscle appearance?

They don't live long enough (because they reach slaughter weight) to develop and exhibit the characteristics you're suggesting.  The duration of exposure is not long enough.  Plenty of true enhancers such as equipoise to increase muscle in horses w/o using feed supplements.

Xbar I really appreciate you answering all my questions, and going out of you comfort zone. Yes I have heard of Equipoise, and Winstrol, but again I'm clueless as to how much muscle mass they can add to a horse. All the people that I personally know that own horses run either lesson stables or do trail rides, or do local shows (but not halter). Equipoise I believe is over the counter in Mexico, but all I want is to visually see its effect on a horse, rather then actually use it.
