    Feeding A Steer

    I still probably wouldn't give him over a 13% protien feed unless he's really small, like a dink. I'm sure he's not, he shoudn't need higher than that.

    Feeding A Steer

    Is he gonna need more frame? How's he bred or what breed is he? This is how we feed the calves that we want to gain: corn, corn, corn, then as soon as they get sick of corn we give them more corn. JMO, this will not be good for hair growth. Steam flaked is the best to feed. Our push ration...

    The Official Baby Calves Thread Spring 2010

    He's a BC Lookout on a Almost Famous/WMW cow. He's registered Chi and 3/4 Angus by pedigree. This is his first calf crop and so far we are very pleased. The calves have come a little bigger than we like but I think they've been worth it.

    corn silage vs. rolled corn

    Don't feed silage to your show calves. They only need a good coarse grass hay. I would use rolled or cracked corn in your feed ration. Steam flaked is the better but it is more expensive and sometimes hard to come by. If you have access to corn silage I would feed it to your cows. If you are...

    Help, can't keep ear tags in

    We put fly tags in both ears at the beginning of each summer, so we're always putting new ones in anyway. By next summer half of them are gone, doesn't matter what brand. Even the RFID tags come out every once and a while.

    gomer bull needed

    I've got a cow that is a better heat checker than any bull I've ever seen. The bull usually has to knock her off to get it done. You're more than welcome to her. Would not work on heifers because she weighs 2000+. She's located in north central IN.

    Steer Feed

    You could afford to loose some corn gluten. I would also advise a calcium mineral pack with any corn gluten or distillers. We've fed up to 500 per ton to our feedlot cattle but never the show calves. It'll get em fat. Our finish ration last year had 125#'s per ton. We feed about the same amount...
