What do Angus ranchers feed their cattle Do they add hormones?
Depends on the ranchers themselves and what market they are targeting, and what cattle they're feeding. Cattle fed on a feedlot diet (which comprises of 97% of the finisher/backgrounding herd in the USA) are not fed hormones, but are given growth hormones via implants in the ears. Heifers, on the other hand, are fed hormones to keep them from going into heat all the time. Angus cattle on such a diet are fed primarily corn-grain-silage mixture to fatten them up prior to slaughter.

Why are hormones fed to cattle?
Almost all hormones are, in fact, not fed to cattle. The vast majority of hormones, in their various forms, are injectable and are administered to cattle in either a capsule- or a liquid-form (particularly that of Posilac for dairy cows). Melengestrol acetate MGA is the only hormone that is administered to cattle--specifically feeder beef heifers--orally as a feed additive in order to suppress estrus activity. Estrus activity in heifers creates issues from a feeder's standpoint, as such heifers' rate of intake and gain will decrease when they are in heat, which will compromise their gaining ability and overall target weight when they are meant to be fed up for slaughter.
