[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 198"] Feeding your steer grass hay, corn/cob and barley is leaving him starved for protein. You also are probably short of calcium, phos and all minerals. You could contact a local feed supply store and get a complete balanced ration in a bag. If you have access to whole soybeans you could feed him two and a half to three lbs. per day along with the other feeds and a good mineral that has 19% calcuim at a feeding rate of 1/2 lbs. per day. His going off feed may just be that you over feed because he cleans the bunk. Try to feed him 22-25 lbs per day until he steadies out then when he cleans up the feed only increase the amount by 1 lbs. every other day. [/QUOTE]
