until our fair. Al's steer only gained 2# last week (it was cold like January down here :shock: and it just took almost all he was eating, to stay warm). He weighed in at 622# on Sunday morning. He's got to hit 1,000# to make the minimum........
Al's feeding him right at 16# of finisher a day, plus some soybean meal mixed in.......Wheez is eating almost all he gets in the morning, by chore time at night, and vice-versa, so he's right about where he needs to be there. Today I got him some rolled corn and Show Bloom (it's supposed to increase appetite, among other things). I also invested in some 7-way vaccine to give him (and probably wouldn't hurt the heifer, too) a booster, as our CA suggested.

Is there anything else you can think of that might help him gain more weight? Thanks in advance!
