[QUOTE="Lomac, post: 1130548, member: 21024"] Thanks again for all the help earlier when we had both steers down and off feed. They are back and eating well. we have changed up some of the feed and have created a another slight problem. the 1400lb steer has been on 4lbs beet pulp, 4lbs whole shell corn and 2lbs grain mixture (cracked corn, soy, timothy hay, barley ground together..approx 13% protein) per feeding and minimal hay evening only. He started having a big hay stomach hence hay reduction. So 20lbs a day. Previously he was at 24lbs a day, grain mixture and hay. We are tryin to hold his weight as much as possible. We have developed some hollow spots behind the shoulders and flank area, due to the whole shell corn I imagine? There are 23 days to show and sale and need to bulk him up. Ppl tell me to stay where we are and others say throw the feed to em. Will the grain mixture bulk him up more/faster than the pulp? Do I need to give more pulp? Any suggestions. I have some pics, wish I could load them. Thanks [/QUOTE]
