Okay, I'll lock him up and leave it for him.

It smells good and taste okay, can I put something sweet on it to get him to try it like Dyne?

He won't eat it. I have him the smallest amount and he refuses his feed. If I walk with a bucket of only a handful of rice bran he runs away.

Yes I posted with the other one, it was another person from our barn with the weight challenged steer. Okay, so no depth charge yet. Start the rice bran now?

He's going to start the depth charge tomorrow. He's not on a very high corn ratio so if the dietert 60 gets him there I'll get that this weekend. Ill try to find rice bran this weekend as well. Would a liquid fat supplement help?

Yeah, sorry. He was being a butt when  was trying to set him up and I ended up taking the picture without fixing him. Ill get another tomorrow.

I have an August born Angus x Limosine steer. He's at 900lbs right now and has been gaining around 100 lbs a month since late march. He gets 13 lbs of feed morning and evenings with a flake of coastal hay at each. Not on any supplements yet.. http://i44.tinypic.com/10cvucn.jpg...

Yes, he is normal about everything. Here's another picture (him actually eating. The steer behind him is a 900 lbs angus that's about 6 inche taller. http://i43.tinypic.com/nw08s9.jpg

He walks thirty minutes every morning then gets a bath, he's turned out all night.

We're going to try hosing him down, rubbing down his legs and keep more fans on him with misters attached and try the other feed with the fat. Going down there later to check and feed again, feeding him when it's cooler as well. Ill get another picture or two. Thank you and I will keep you...

Okay, thank you. Going to the feedstore Friday and we will get those. I've had people recommend the heavy weight high octane supplement, could that help any?

This is the feed an the calf. He eats sometimes but not all the time. We weigh him once a week so it's not that he was weighed funny. http://i43.tinypic.com/1exnyw.jpg http://i42.tinypic.com/2dblapv.jpg

I have a September born Charolais x Maine Anjou steer. I got him May 30 and he weighed 595lbs and today he weighed 675lbs. It's been two months an he's only gained 80lbs. I've been feeding him 10 lbs morning and night, which he doesn't clean out quickly (it takes him until his next feeding to...

In our steer barn we have a September born Charolais steer, he's only lived in and around pens so he's not use to the large pastures like we have at our facility. (1/2 acre pastures with 2-3 stalls) he's alone right now and we've had him for about a week now, he's gentle and calm when he's tied...
