I have never raised beef cattle myself but while growing up Dad always had a few. He had ear corn ground cob and all along with oats. He had some type of supplement added. When we shut them up to fatten he also added molasses. Being over 55 years since I was around it I have no idea of the exact formula. We fed out a car load when I was in high school and lost out butts. Lost the profit to bloat before we switched from hay to straw for roughage. Still had to tap one or two a week for bloat.
