Yes feeding yeast, not weighing they are going at 13 months average weight 240 kg . They should be doing a lot better as they are good weaned calves when they come , think maybe we should have stopped with beet when the beans finished ?there seams to be a couple in every group going down hill every week since we swapped.
Not lame as such few struggling walk on either front or back , but not blown feet

Yes on ad lib . Vet in morning and will speak to calf supplier. Cant help thinking it’s the diet
Are they picking the chopped beet out and getting to much .I would cut the beet out and no need for chopped straw just feed nice straw in racksYes on ad lib . Vet in morning and will speak to calf supplier. Cant help thinking it’s the diet
As @ollie989898 says, if all the group are poor it is unlikely to be the diet.
Get a vet and get some test done.
