[QUOTE="CowCop, post: 215369, member: 1049"] We do the same. Weanlings can NOT compete with older cows for hay and grain. The older cows will ALWAYS get the food first and eat most of it, leaving the weanling with nothing to sustain themselves. Add the stress of the "pecking order" and the head butting and its a wonder if weanlings can gain anything in that kind of environment. Separate your weanlings and your older cows. The weanlings will do better and grow better with less stress. [/QUOTE]
