[QUOTE="SF, post: 100200, member: 1171"] KT You said you were feeding this calf 2 cans every morning and 2 cans every night. If I understand you correctly, you are saying that the calf is only bloating after the morning feeding? What else are you feeding this calf and when. This calf must be eating something else in the mornings. What brand of feed are you feeding? Does it have cottonseed hulls in it? I've seen mixed feed with cottonseed hulls in them cause bloat on some cattle. If this is the case you can switch to a textured feed where the cottonseed hulls have been pelletized. If this is a 4-h calf and is about 950 pounds, I assume you are planning on showing this calf somewhere. Need to get him back on feed as quickly as possible. PM me if you want my help, I'll get you my phone number and you can call me. You need to get this calf back on feed asap. Slowly though, as to not upset his stomach. One last thing. You might want to consider contacting your vet. You need to get this problem solved asap. [/QUOTE]
