506 pounds hanging weight what is live weight of brown Swiss steer?

Assuming that the hanging weight of the BS steer is 40% of the liveweight of that steer, then the liveweight may be around 1265 lbs, which is around the optimum slaughter weight of a brown Swiss steer.Keep in mind that the Brown Swiss breed is a dairy breed, which means that you won't get as much meat off of the carcass as you will with other beef breeds including Angus, Charolais, Simmental or Shorthorn. So when I say it is a dairy breed, I mean that it does not put on muscle and fat as efficiently as the beef breeds listed.Thus, if you had to slaughter a beef steer and not a dairy steer, you would definitely have a higher percentage hanging weight than the one I calculated for you. So, to compensate for the type of animal you had slaughtered AND the breed it was, you have to calculate for a lower percentage of hanging weight of that steer.Now if I calculated the hanging weight to a higher percentage, say 75% or 55%, the liveweight would be the following:Hanging weight (506 lbs) is 75% of liveweight = 674 lbs liveweightHanging weight (506 lbs) is 55% of liveweight = 920 lbs liveweightNeither of the above make any sense because, for one, they do not account for the type of animal in question, nor do they count for the viscera, blood, head, tail, and legs which come from the animal. Hanging weight being 75% of the liveweight is ridiculously high, and 55% of the liveweight is also ludicrous because both percentages don't take into account the fact that a brown Swiss steer is a dairy steer (poorer ability to put on weight in muscle and fat than beef steers), and the amount of "waste" that has to be removed before it is hanged for a few weeks.

What is the average hanging weight of a 20 month old Hereford Angus steer?

The average hanging weight of a 20-month-old Hereford Angus steer typically ranges from 600 to 800 pounds. Factors such as diet, genetics, and overall health can influence this weight. Generally, beef cattle at this age are well-developed, contributing to a substantial hanging weight when processed.


How much corn does it take for a steer to gain 1 pound?

For such a general question, it requires a general answer: It depends on the steer and the type of feed corn being used to feed that steer. There is some sort of general "rule of thumb" out there that it takes around 9 lbs of grain to get one pound of beef, but that is pretty ambiguous. It takes more pounds of corn to get a pound of gain on a Holstein steer than it would on an Angus steer, for instance. Also, cracked corn will get a steer to gain more weight than whole corn will.


What types of meat requires the most grain and water to produce one pound?

Beef, especially that from a dairy steer. It takes around 9 lbs of grain to produce a pound of ready-to-eat beef, on average. With a dairy steer though, it may take more than that likely 12 to 15 lbs of grain to make a lb of beef from a Jersey or Holstein steer, a lot more than that needed for a Charolais or Angus-Charolais-cross steer. As for water, that's a bit more variable since there's a lot of factors to take into account before an actual measure of how many lbs, or gallons or liters or whatever of water it takes to make one pound of ready-to-eat beef.
