[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 2100"] The protein in the liquid feed you are feeding is mainly from urea. This is intended to get a mature animal through the winter and is not sufficient for a growing calf. Even with a mature cow if she is not getting all of the energy that she needs then this will not be utilized as protein. Urea is just cheap protien and while a little bit is fine nothing replaces good natural sources. You might want consider creep feeding your calves in the winter just watch your costs.
