[QUOTE="pdoramus, post: 155632, member: 2237"] We raise a few holstein bucket calves. I try to get a couple new ones each month and have 4 calves on buckets at the same time. That's all I can feed at once. At 7 weeks we begin weaning. At two months we switch from Startena starter by Purina to Growena up until 6 months. Once the switch is made we supplement with flaked corn and hay (or pasture when available). A few are kept to feed out and sell on the hoof for butchering, but the rest are sold as light to heavy feeders depending on the time of year and market. I don't have enough pasture to feed out more or I would. [/QUOTE]
