[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1652453, member: 968"] I would feed him like you feed/develop your heifers. Well, I guess I don't know how you develop your heifers - LOL. You want to feed him less than a finishing steer, but you want him to grow to his potential. Growth, not feedlot fat. When using a bull, your cows and bull should be vaccinated with Vibrio. You can get BoviShield 5L5V (thats Lepto 5 + Vibrio). There are many products - or even straight Vibrio vaccine. Hard to recommend without knowing what you do with the rest of your herd. My herd pretty much gets the works. My calves get 3 sets of MLV before they are a year old. Spring calving cows get MLV in fall & fall calving cows get MLV in spring. Calves are dewormed with a pour-on and a drench in summer than again in fall. Cows get dewormed 2x year - mid summer & fall. If you are not feeding loose mineral - you should. [/QUOTE]
