Feeding and management tips for mature bulls
The article advises careful feeding to keep bulls vigorous and fast breeders. It outlines a grain mix of ground corn, wheat bran, oats, oilmeal, and bone meal, plus daily amounts by weight and animal size. It cautions against overfeeding to avoid fattening and slow breeding, and notes limited corn silage with ample hay as acceptable.
