[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 8600"] Typically a heifer feed is about 16% crude protein. It should have Vitamins A,D &E., selenium and other trace minerals, balanced for calcium and phophorus. It will depend on what you are feeding the heifer for and how old she is. I like to feed heifer calves a 16% protein diet but will change to a 13% (when she older)if I am also feeding older animals (cow/calf) or steers. The feed I use has lots of bells and whistles because I have watched show people add this and that so I created our Eyecatcher 16 and 13 with these things in them.
