[QUOTE="Buck Randall, post: 1632603, member: 38590"] He'll need grain until he's 4-6 months old; his stomach won't be fully developed to digest grass properly before then. A local feed dealer can help you out to get what you'll need. Has he been dehorned? If not, I'd strongly recommend having it done before he gets much bigger. A big steer with horns that wants to play with you is dangerous. If you get it taken care of while he's still a calf it won't bother him too much. Do you have a vet? I'd recommend finding one and confirming that they're willing to provide service to you before you need it. Nothing worse than having a deathly sick animal on a weekend and not being able to get someone out to see it. [/QUOTE]
