I have a bull calf that I am raising for meat. This is my first try at this so be patient. He is a Holstien. He is about 1 monmth old. I have had him since day 3. He has been getting 2 qts milk replacer 2x day. He is eating about 3 cups total calf starter a day, hay free choice and he is now grazing all day . I was told to feed the milk replacer till the bag was finished. well it's empty and I feel He is too young to be weaned. Should I keep him on milk replacer fo anothe rmonth? Also I have been giving him the good stuff no fiber lots of milk protien. someone gave me a bag of milk replacer but it seems to have mostly soy protein. Now that he is eating hay and grass will he do ok on the soy?
Thanks in advance Steff and "Mr. T"
