[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 3886"] A while back I received input from you about a Angus bull calf with a birth weight of 107 lb. His sire is GDAR SVF Traveler 234D, and his Dam is Lemmon Blackbird 5034. My question is about feeding grain. Most people say that we should be feeding grain, in addition to their acces (at present) to unlimited green grass, albeit it is E+ fescue, in order to maintain a gain of 2.5 -3.0 lb per day. This calf weaned at 5 1/2 months and is growing at a rate of 3.5 lb per day and weighs 643 lb on grass alone (no grain). Do we need to give him grain at this point or just keep a watch on weights and add as needed to maintain the required weight gains? Thanks, Bill [/QUOTE]
