[QUOTE="lilfarmangel, post: 979990, member: 17030"] He's been pot-bellied since I got him. I've wormed him, given him baking soda hidden in his grain. He started rejecting his grain because he didn't want the baking soda. He gets 1-2 flakes of each grass hay and alfalfa twice a day. In addition, he gets 2 coffee cups (yes, CUPS, not cans) of each, rolled grain and alfalfa pellets, plus 1/2 lb calf manna per day. So I thought I was giving him too much alfalfa, cut that back... nope, still a butterball... I still feel like I'm not feeding him enough. I swear I fed my angus/jersey steer calf more than that when he was 9 months old! He's happy, plays with the goats in his pen, does all the things my other calved did when they were his age... Like I said before, maybe I'm so use to looking at dairy cows that I see him as malformed... [/QUOTE]
