FEEDING RECOMMENDATIONS
Cattle should be gradually introduced to concentrate mixtures as indicated in the MIXING AND FEEDING SCHEDULE above. Do not make sudden changes in diet as digestive disturbances may occur and in some cases death could result.
Ensure that personnel attending the cattle keep a constant watch for signs of digestive disturbance such as scouring. If scouring or other digestive problems occur, do not increase the grain portion until the faeces firm up and the cattle's condition improves, if necessary increase hay consumption and reduce the grain portion.
Ensure that hay and fresh water are available at all times.
