Calhoun reported. This is onr of the reasons for challenge or lead feeding. There aie problems, how* ever, Calhoun admitted The cow may gr off hei feed if brought to full feed of con centrates 100 quickly On the other hand, if the cow is un derfed *oo long after freshen ing. the body reseives aie drawn upon II the icserves aie used up quickl}. produc tion will go down Also, con tinual underfeeding favois the development of ketosis Experience with cows giving 80 pounds 01 more milk per day shows that it’s very diffi cult to get these cows to eat enough grain even with the challenge feeding and good quality roughage According to Calhoun, one appioach to the problem is to start feeding grain before freshening so that, by the tune the cow freshens, a concentrate-feeding level of 15 to 18 pounds per day has been reached. This conditions the cow to handle large quantities of feed. After calving, the level of concentrates is increased as quickly as possible to either greatest ippetite oi greatest milk yield, whichever is reached fust Theieafter, the concentrate level should be re duced to the lowest level which does not i educe the milk yield A change in the amount of feed usually show's up in the milk yield within 30 hours. Therefore, with close atten tion, long periods of under feeding or overfeeding can be avoided The most important single point to remember in any feed ing program is that each cow is an individual; her habits and. ability to handle feed may dif fer from othei cows. A good herdsman has to watch bis cows closely and feed accord ing to the appetites of indi vidual cows, Calhoun stresses.
