Book Description
Calves that gained more weight during preconditioning had larger REA but smaller REA/100kg values. As estimated Brahman percentage increased HCW and quality grade (QG) decreased. Differences in condition score resulted in heavier HCW for slightly thin and average condition calves when compared to slightly fleshy calves. Slightly thin calves had lower REA/100kg than average condition and slightly fleshy calves. Steers had heavier HCW than heifers and reported smaller REA/100kg values than heifers. Black cattle had lighter HCW than yellow, grey, and white cattle. Black and grey cattle had better QG than red and yellow cattle. Red and yellow cattle had similar QG, while white cattle were intermediate to all other colors and similar. Black cattle had a greater YG and smaller REA than all other colors evaluated. Black cattle had smaller REA/100kg values than yellow and grey calves but were similar to red and white cattle. Color pattern had no significant affect on any of the carcass traits measured indicating that cattle perform similarly for carcass characteristics regardless of color pattern. Shedding characteristics had no significant affect on any of the carcass traits measured in this study.
