Feeding

Starting Calves on Developer:

At the start of the feeding period, fill calves on hay and gradually introduce Sunglo® Show Calf Developer over time the first day, divided into two equal feedings.
Increase feed by 1-1.5 lbs. per day, with corresponding decreases in hay until full feed intake is achieved.
Once calves are on full feed, Sunglo® Show Calf Developer should be hand fed in equal feedings twice a day.
Transition slowly from one ration to another to minimize risk of digestive upsets.

On Full Feed:

Feed should be completely consumed before next feeding. Do not allow feed to build up in bunk and get moldy.
Remove any feed not consumed and reduce the amount of feed in proportion to the amount left over.
Similarly, increase the amount of feed when feed is completely consumed before the next feeding, but limit this increase to one pound or less per feeding.

Feeding Tips: Slowing Rate of Gain: If calves are gaining too rapidly, it may be necessary to use one of the following options:

Decrease the daily allotment of Sunglo® Show Calf Feed by 2-4 lbs.

Add Sunglo® Full Tank™ at a rate of 1-5 lbs. per head per day to meet desired weight gain.

Difficult Finishing: Some large-frame calves may require longer finishing periods or increased energy density in the finishing ration to achieve the desired finish.

To increase energy, feed 50/50 Sunglo® Show Calf Developer and Sunglo® Show Calf Finisher.
Add 1-3 lbs. of Sunglo® LiquaFAT™ to meet desired finish.

Going Off Feed (Burnout): This feed has been carefully formulated to promote consumption. However, should your calf experience a drop in feed consumption of more than 10% of targeted daily feed intake for more than two days, blend in Sunglo® 2 the Fullest with Cob™ at a rate up to 1/2 of daily intake to enhance appetite. A more dramatic drop in feed consumption may require going back to the beginning and re-initiating your calf to feed. In either case, the return to Sunglo® Show Calf Developer should be done gradually. Should your calf go completely off feed, consult your veterinarian or Sunglo® Show Feed specialist.
