Weaning & retaining calves? Start ‘em fast

Some ranchers are choosing to retain and feed their calves. Our preconditioning, receiving and weaning rations are complete "start 'em fast" programs. Options include:

  • Pre-Conditioning/ Receiving Chow is a highly-palatable weaning pellet by Purina Mills. It's a fortified, 12% protein pellet with chlortetracycline & sulfamethazine to aid in reducing stress. This product is the original, proven weaning feed from Purina that has been used by stockmen for years to get calves off to fast start.
  • Super Stressfighter is geared to calves weighing less than 400 lbs. This highly fortified and very palatable pellet from ADM will get those light calves off to a fast, healthy start.
  • Prospector Carmel Blocks deliver hi-energy in a fortified 14% protein package.
  • Custom rations are available. We can custom design weaning and growing rations specifically for your operation, using available roughage and tailoring average daily gains to meet your goals.
Let us help you get your calves off to a healthy start so they can live up to their performance potential. Call, email or stop by and see owner Curt Russell to review the options best for you.
