[QUOTE="Popcorn, post: 5855890, member: 20151"] For what it’s worth, Currently enjoying a beefalo calf that began as a feeding test on a slow grow breed that is genetically predisposed to being grass fed. We love the texture afforded by the bison genes and yes the yellow fat is very important but decent marbling is critical to being flavorful and tender. Calf was on grass with occasional supplements to 700 lbs then moved to lush orchard grass / clover with supplements equal to 1% of body weight 2X week to about 1100 lbs then remaining on grasses with grain feed choice for approximately 8 weeks to final 1360 lbs. very happy with the results but for “ideal” marble the ration of grain feed might be better if incremental increases were employed throughout the 9 month feed up to full choice rather than sudden increase later in the feed out. IE: good marble takes time [/QUOTE]
