Unthrifty Calf

[chippie]

What did you deworm him with? Did you use the same product each time or rotated dewormers?

Have you given him any probios or probiotics?

TSC (Tractor Supply) All Stock Feed is not a good feed. I think that it is 10% protein and not a quality feed plus it is loaded with molasses.

Tractor Supply is carrying Purina and Nutrena feeds. See if they have Purina 4-Square Stocker/Grower Chow. It is an all natural 14% protein feed.

Just wanted to give you all another update. My calf continues to look better every day. His belly is much more porportionate now and he has definately put on weight. I used the weight tape after my original post and he was approx 333#. Today I measured him at nearly 400#. Thanks again!
