Hi all
i have a 250kgs poll Hereford steer he was December drop, I am hoping to take him to a hoof and hook show In September, the min weight is 360kgs their is 83 days to the show,he is going on feed tommorow so by the end of the month I should have a good idea about his daily weight gain. what would you recommend me doing to maximise his weight gain? I feed barley,lupins corn mix, with chaff as a finishing ration, also I am planning to start weaning him in the next 2 weeks, I have left it really late this year but with complications with the Cow had to do it late. Ps it is winter here so his feed will be in a shelter.
