It's been 22 years since I showed club calves in 4-H. My daughter will be starting her first year of 4-H this fall. She had a bottle calf for pre 4-H this summer and will be taking it back to the fair next summer as a market steer. He's not a high powered club calf but is a nice enough animal, high percentage shorthorn. What should his grain ration be at this point? He's 5 months old and approx. 325-350 lbs, weaned from bottle the end of June.
Should he be implanted? How do you worm, with what and how often?
Thanks for any and all help. Trying to learn this all over again.
