Heifer calves should be
fed all of the good or excel
lent quality forage they
want. Add one or two pound
of a 16 per cent grain mix.
Well grown heifers, bred to
freshen at 24 months of age,
wi’l return more profit dur
ing their life in the herd
than those that freshen as
older heifers, says Harvey
Shaffer, extension dairy spe
cialist.
