I don"t know if you have a Kent feed dealer nearby, but mine carries a handy little book with rations using their most populat Baby Beef protiens and different formulations of corn, alfalfa, haylage and silage. They also have formulations using co-products, both wet and dry. The book is free and quite handy. As a general rule, you want to feed the calf 3% of their body weight total (grain and hay both) each day. So, a 600 lb steer would get around 10 lbs of corn, 7.5 lbs of mixed hay and .75 lbs of protien supplement. An 1150 lb steer would get 21.0 lbs of corn, 3 lbs. of mixed hay and 1.0 lbs of protien supplement. Hope this helps!
