[QUOTE="MurraysMutts, post: 1651629, member: 39373"] So I have always fed 2qts, twice a day. The calves I've reared have done ok. Seven is doing well. Shes a yearling now. BUT! The bag says..... Feed 1 and a half to 3 quarts, twice a day. Adjust as needed. I'm using ultra 24 if your curious. 24% protein. 24% fat. I think. Calves seem to do well on it. NO SOY ingredients. This lil bull calf is taking 2 qts twice a day like no other! I'm also keeping calf manna out free choice. Only hay is bedding. I have no way to weigh him really but I'm wondering if anyone has fed this much and how it went? He almost looks like a lil butterball show calf. Only miniature. Lol I'd like to keep his condition but dont want to over do it either. Or waste valuable milk replacer. Should I just keep on with what i know has worked in the past and get him eating feed? Or ya think i should give it a shot and keep on with the feed too? Thanks! Interested to hear from you's guys.. [/QUOTE]
