[QUOTE="Clay52, post: 4043788, member: 41826"] If you figure 3x is worth it for you it can be done. No one is saying you have to though. I don't do 3x in our individual pens but I could work it. We feed ours in individual pens twice a day for a week to 10 days before going on the auto feeder. Just allows them to be strong enough before they go to the auto feeder and compete with calves that already know what to do. If I didn't have an auto feeder I would group feed calves ad lib milk twice a day on teat feeders and I have done that when the auto feeder was at capacity. Calves did very well. [/QUOTE]
