Feeding a young bull?

We bought a year old angus bull this week that was on feed so should we keep him on a bull ration or 20% creep pellets or some type of sweet grain?

I'd start working him down a little if I was you. He ain't gonna eat like that when you turn him out and you don't want him to crash too hard when you do!

I would keep feeding him and cut it back like 3waycross suggested. You don't want to stop feeding him cold turkey. If you do, chances are he will fall apart. I would try to keep him on the same feed if you can. Suddenly switching feeds and being in a new environment can throw one off.
