Couple of questions:
1) I'm going to start graining to get ready to slaughter one. I'm doing it for 38 days. Is this enough to get any flavor in there? I have heard people grain for 30, 45 and 90 days, so I'm just looking for opinions on what you've seen work. Also, my neighbor ,who's done this for a few years, said to use rolled corn otherwise it doesn't work well. Thoughts?
2) I had my bull dewormed about 3 months ago. The other day he was pooping what it looked like before he was wormed. It was a darker green and a little runny. Not solid, but not entirely liquid either, somewhere more on the solid side, but still not like the other cattle. I have a pour on wormer, would it do anything bad if I hit him with it?
Thanks
