[QUOTE="Karin, post: 998106, member: 18961"] You are really overdoing it. :) You don't need the medicated feed, because you're not fattening them up on grain, so stop feeding that. The protein block may be a bit much, if any a protein supplement of only around 14 to 20% is more than enough for these heifers. So, yep, out with the protein block. I also agree with getting rid of the salt block that only has trace mineral. You're getting enough mineral as it is with the loose stuff. Always remember, less is more. I never seen your other posts, so how old are these heifers and what is their condition (body condition score)? [/QUOTE]
