The Efficiency of Milk Substitutes in Calf Feeding1

Geo. Spitzer and R. H. Carr

Dairy Husbandry Department, Purdue Experimental Station, Lafayette, Indiana

ABSTRACT

  1. Beef blood when combined with corn and oil meal in proportion of 8 parts corn meal, 1 part oil meal and 12 parts beef blood furnishes a reasonably successful milk substitute for feeding young calves.
  2. The development of the calves when on pasture indicates that the feeding of Purdue Calf meal seems not to have impaired or stunted the growth impetus, as the gain in weight of calves fed Purdue Calf Meal was equal to the gain in weight of the milk fed calves while on pasture.

FOOTNOTES

1 Acknowledgment id given Mr. R. E. Caldwell for his help during the first and second part of this experiment.
