As most of you know I bought a new bull a couple weeks ago. He weighed 1600 lbs at sale time. I brought him home and have him in a 1/2 acre lot. I am feeding him about 20 lbs (5 gallon bucket full) of 12% Beef Builder

per day along with all of the hay he wants, free choice minerals, a protein tub and fresh clean water. What should I expect? Do you think he will gain, maintain or lose weight? I would like for him to either maintain or gain slightly. I am going to need to back him off slowly onto grass when green-up starts. I don't want him to melt on cows...losing some condition is expected but if he is what I hope he will be he shouldn't lose much on my lush pastures.
