[QUOTE="alabama, post: 396911, member: 2218"] At 7 months he should be about 700 pounds so feed him about 10 pounds on bull ration in the morning and 10 in the evening. Turn him out on some grass if you can. He will be happier and do better if he is with others. I have raised a bull this way by letting him in the pin once a day and feed him 20 pounds once a day. After a few days training he will meet you at the gate every evening so he will be easy to feed alone. After he eats turn him back out. To start with you may have to catch some cows with him but don't feed the cows just cut them out and then feed the bull. It won't take but 2 or 3 days for them all to learn. One more thing: If he has been on feed you might start him out on 1.5% body weight and work up to 3% in about 2 weeks. I recomend you buy a bull ration from the local feed store that is about 12 or 13% [/QUOTE]
