A method for improving efficiencies in livestock production comprising segregating and maintaining together in groups animals selected on the basis of age, frame type and ob gene allelotype. The method facilitates the acquisition, by livestock animals in such groups held in commercial feeding and finishing facilities, of more uniformity in body condition (a livestock industry-recognized function of total body weight and percent total body weight comprised of fat, including intermuscular fat and back fat), and more uniform attainment of a desired body condition temporally, which purposes are useful for maximizing benefits accruing to operators of such facilities and satisfying changing consumers demand with respect to quantities of fats in meats. Also disclosed are methods for breeding progeny livestock animals with usefully predictable propensities to accumulate body fat.
