REAL BEEF - BETTER THAN EVER.™

■CERTIF|EmEFB
Would you like to raise beef
cattle in existing facilities?
Available exclusively from;
Dairy beef cattle perform well
when you avoid extremes m
temperature and moisture. A
-little planning and $3OO
$1,200 can turn many existing
facilities into a protected, dry
pen;
Maximum weight gain and
minimal labor are the result.
Find a well drained location
which lets steers find dry
ground in any weather. An
unheated, 3-sided machine
shed or barn stalls converted
to a pen are ideal.
Keep the draft off by covering
any large holes with sheet
metal or plywood. Allow
steers to move freely with a
double-wide outside entrance.
Certified Beef™ is a low-investment, high-gain program to take cattle
to market weight in 12 months. The Tend-R-Leen beef meets growing
consumer demand for less fat, better value and great flavor.

pennfield feeds
Give them 25-30 sq. ft. per
head including water source
and bulk feeder (if used). Best
choice is feed and water close
to shed/barn to encourage “all
weather eating.”
-5k
Let steers eat with wide
enough feeder or bunks. Their
only job is to eat —don’t make
it hard for animals to punch in
for work.
Make gate handy for truck
access: Come marketing time,
you’ll be glad you did. With
multiple pens, give each its
own gate.
Raising a small group from
bull calves shouldn’t be a
major effort —and that
includes fixing up your
facility.
