Excerpt From: |
 |
Monitor your steer’s
performance by weighing it at least once a month, in the morning before
feeding, and calculate its daily gain since the last weight. Record its
weight and date on a chart.
If its daily gain has fallen off, ask a knowledgeable
adult for some help in determining why.
It may be a simple matter of
making a minor change in the facilities to minimize the stress on the
steer;
it may require changing the amount of feed given or the energy
level of the ration; or it may require addressing a health related problem.
