[QUOTE="Dsth, post: 1809511, member: 38038"] I start calving in November and start offering my calves a calf starter at about 3 weeks. not creep feeder but feed trough were cows have no access. I think it helps them continue to grow well through the colder months. once pairs are turned out on pasture, calves still have access to grain but only about 2 lbs./hd/day if they want it. As the pasture gets shorter, they return to the feeder more often. it seems to help them adjust at weaning time. I have always been happy with weights at sale time. last year had a few over 900 lbs. on sale day at about 8 months. [/QUOTE]
