[QUOTE="shearerlad, post: 7748089, member: 5825"] I’m a big believer in filling creep feeders with the telescopic. The reason being that if you try to feed a certain amount, the bigger, bolder calves will always take their fill and leave very little for the small or shy ones. Ad-lib and the big ones come in first, the wee ones can then get as much as they want afterwards This was another father/son debate, but the ad-lib way has seen a vast improvement in the smaller/younger/shy calves, and average weaning weights are far better. Improvement in your average is done by bringing your bottom end up. [/QUOTE]
