[QUOTE="ISCO, post: 7204546, member: 5662"] We calves May onwards and have introduced creep in last month. Will wean and leave on adlib until sale January/march. Charollais calves out of saler. Best feed conversion when young. In the past we would keep heifers on silage and a couple of kg barley. Last time we did this I was told they were the only proper store cattle in the mart. Problem was they were a very poor trade compared to adlib heifers . If I was turning heifers out then I would keep on silage and couple of kg barley to get compensatory growth but not to sell.
