[QUOTE="LaurenE, post: 154070, member: 2659"] I have a question about my show steer. This is the same one that I have written about in prior posts. He now weighs according to the weight tape to be about 800 pounds, and he is gaining well, but he is still not doing as well as I would like on the corn feed we are feeding. All of the other steers and heifers are eating it fine and have had no problems, but he still has a loose stool after feeding it to him for about a month and a half now. I only give him approximately 1 1/2 scoops (3 qt scoop) each feeding with about 6 or so scoops of Purina Fitters Edge. He also gets as much coastal hay as he wants when he gets let out every to every other day. Should I give him some probios? He loves the corn and will eat as much as he can of it, but I just dont know it anybody else has had this problem with feeding their cattle a high energy corn mash? Should I up the corn and hope that his system gets used to it and just give him as much hay as he wants? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
