ok peeps . lets make this simple , I know different breeds of cattle and rate of gains have a lot to do with feeding rations. I have no scales to keep weighing my Angus steer to try to determine what percentage of body weight for the amount of feed mix to feed him , so I've got a steer thats probably 600-700lb and my butchering appt. is 6months from now. I have it penned up in a small area and giving it free choice 1st cutting hay until butcher . its been fed sweet feed since birth basically but very little.
I plan on using bagged 12% sweet mix and whole corn from tractor supply. so my question would be how many lbs per day of each and at what time should I change to a different feed ration and at how many lbs per day.
do you feed one time a day or 2 times.
again I'm not an expert on this and just asking for simple answers as to how you all feed yours
thanks. Ron
