Starting Baby Beef on Feed From Farm Bureau Office

The starter feed should be bulky to prevent bloat as calves begin eating. Whole oats work well and are safe to feed freely at first. Gradually replace oats with corn or add corn and cob meal and later switch to shelled corn, barley, or similar grains. Start protein around 0.5 to 1.5 pounds per calf daily and adjust with roughage. Monitor calves, combine hay with straw, and increase gradually to full feed within a month.
