    Anyone know what is best amount of ration (also feeding hay) for two month old calves just weaned.
    I have them on 1kg a day at the moment but should I go higher as they are off milk?
    Thanks

    Send them on to grass ASAP. Kg if ye want for a few weeks till they get in on grass shouldn't need any then till autumn
