Hay Consumption of Holstein Calves

H. S. Willard1

Wyoming Agricultural Experiment Station, Laramie, Wyoming

ABSTRACT

In this study, two factors have been demonstrated as having an effect toward increasing the consumption of alfalfa hay by dairy calves: (1) an increase of hay allowance, (2) a decrease of grain allowance. This study has further shown that calves may make desirable growth when fed high quality alfalfa hay alone, as early as nine months of age. The experiments also furnish a basis for further study of factors influencing hay consumption.
