[QUOTE="traks44, post: 497932, member: 7091"] how big of calves? For stocker calves in the fall(450-550lbs) as soon as we get them off the truck we give them, dectomax wormer, pyramid, 7 way, and 20CC of LA (oxytytriceclene) and they get branded. They go straight to a small pasture for the first week on grass and some alfalfa and then into the feedlot. Death loss hovers around 1.5-2% Calves will do real well on a grass pasture even if you are supplementing versus the feelot situation. If we run out of room in the pasture, calves that go straight to the feedlot get free choice quality grass hay. I am sure there will be alot of opinions on this, this is just hwo we do it. [/QUOTE]
