[QUOTE="4-Her Mom, post: 28213, member: 357"] Okay, I'll work on that, don't have a digital camera, but I can borrow one easy enough. I'm told the idea with the feed is to get him off the little bit of sweet feed he's on (I think I forgot to tell you that at first!) So, the calf manna/cracked corn mixture is combined with the sweet feed with more of the manna/corn than sweet feed. And then we just throw him some hay in the corner to eat. He's not on pasture. We were told to keep him penned up. My husband made a really nice big pen for him. With shelter from rain/sun. Fresh water all the time. Fed daily and walked daily. He broke so easy to the halter and walking. Like a puppy! Never a moment's problem (I'm sure this isn't typical so we are being realistic!). We did the wormer (I'm drawing a blank right now on the name)that you mix in with the feed and then we were told to do the down the back stuff instead. Does it really matter? Is one better than the other? Thanks again! I'll get right on that picture. [/QUOTE]
