I have been feeding our calves on a blend of malt combings,reject malt,malt dust(extracted from the air in the top of the silos),carb soda !% of total weight and ground limestone 1%.I soak this overnight so the grain does not go straight thru them.Malt is very dry and when i rolled it and fed it out i had 2 dead steers.Much like feeding them on flour.There are different schools of thought on the carb soda,the vet says you cant overdose,the local farmers(dairy) say you can.Do i need to use it all the time or just while they get used to the grain.
