Gents,
I have a coming 3yr old Hereford bull that I have owned since June 2019 that is not wintering well. He covered all cows and has been on easy street with plenty of June cut Bluestem (untested) hay and 3lbs daily of 16% commodity feed. He doesn't act sick but the bred cows he's being fed with are packing on condition and he looks to possibly be going backwards or just not gaining. Been going on 30 days and I've upped feed and hay, but little to no improvement. Last wormed 11/15/19 with Dectomax. Any thoughts or things to looks for? Going to worm him again next weekend but has anyone else dealt with this sort of thing?
Appreciate any input.
