Facts
(Continued From Page 16)
raising program. Pennsylvania
DHIA recools show that within a
breed, the larger two-year-olds
outproduce the undersized ones.
To have animals well grown at
freshening time it is necessary to
start to feed and manage them
properly as soon as they are born.
Adequate nutrients to meet
their growing needs must be
furnished each day throughout
the first two years of a heifer’s
life Otherwise, they can’t be
expected to repay dairymen with
all their inherited producing
ability when they come into
production. Most dairymen do a
good job of feeding calves up to
four months of age. Beyond this
age, however, they are often
expected to get most or all of
their nutrients from forage. If
they are fed top quality forage,
they can make normal growth
with little or no grain If the hay
is fair or poor quality, it is far
better to feed the calves and
heifers enough grain to keep
them growing than to let them
fall behind normal growth rate.
This may require as much as four
to six pounds of a 16 percent grain
mixture per day. Heifers and
calves should be fed the best hay
available. The mature animal
can utilize poor roughage better
than young stock because of their
more highly developed rumen
But, feed alone won’t insure
big, growthy two-year-old
heifers. They must be kept
healthy and comfortable if the
most growth is expected from
them Cleanliness and good
sanitation is necessary in raising
young stock. Dirty, crowded,
poorly ventilated pens make
ideal places for parasites and
diseases to develop and spread.
Dairymen should help their
heifers make normal growth so
they will help make them more
successful dairymen in the
future.
