[QUOTE="randiliana, post: 708901, member: 2308"] I'm impressed, that sure doesn't happen around here. We've kept calves (with the plan of them being replacements) and then had to sell them to make payments. In 6 weeks from when they were weaned, til when they were sold, there is little to no gain. And they were fed as good quality hay as we had and about 5# of grain. On that sort of a ration we expect 1.5 - 2 lbs/day over the winter. And, these calves would have been fenceline weaned also. If you can get gains like that in the first month, it sure would make preconditioning work.... [/QUOTE]
