[QUOTE="Billythekid, post: 1643865, member: 38916"] I feed a few fat calves every year. Normally I feed a corn, bean meal & molasses mix. I recently switched elevators. The guy talked me into feeding this mix, I ordered 5500lbs. 3315lbs rolled corn 1990lbs soyhull/ddg/SBM pellets 205lbs Co-prod Balancer Steakmaker 55lbs Buffer Park I have been mixing 50/50 old and new. Then tried different new to old ratios for the last 2 weeks. These calves do not want to eat it. I started adding a small amount of dried molasses today. Anyone have any ideas to get these guys to eat more. I’m down to my last 30 days need them to add as much weight as possible. I never fed Ddgs& soyhulls. Or the pellets and steak maker. Thinking this may have been a big mistake! Thanks for any info! Approx 1000lb body weight, trying to get 2-2.5% body weight in them daily. [/QUOTE]
