Why Creep Feed?

A calf requires a proper level of nutrition in order to reach its genetic potential. Research has shown that the nutrition requirements of the calf cannot be met by the mother cow’s milk alone, and while calves can consume grass, they are unable to ingest enough to meet their daily requirement for proper growth. The result is what is termed a “hungry calf gap”.

The best way to eliminate this nutrient deficiency is through the introduction of a high quality protein supplement as a creep feed. This type of ration will not only aid the calf in achieving optimum growth, the creep feed will also lessen the demand on the cow for milk. The result is the calf being able to reach its full genetic potential along with a better-conditioned cow. A cow that is able to gain weight during the grazing season is able to channel more of her food intake into body condition as opposed to providing energy to the calf.


Feeding Directions

Feed as a complete feed to cattle along with forage. Changes to the feeding program should be made gradually for adaptation to take place. Follow an on-farm feeding program provided by your Masterfeeds Account Manager.

Feeding Tips:

  • Use a sturdy, well-designed and well-protected creep feeder.
  • Place the feeder in a convenient cow-calf loafing area.
  • Make certain the feed is fresh by filling the feeder with only enough feed to last 10 to 14 days.
  • Never let the creep feeder go empty. Maintain proper herd health management.
