FAQs

What type of calf does Sunglo Calf Finisher work well on? 

Calf Finisher can work well on most cattle that need extra energy and finish (fat cover). Many feeders have found success on cattle that may be larger framed, later maturing, or "green" that need more cover everywhere. 

How does Sunglo Calf Finisher compare to other feeds in the Sunglo Calf lineup? 

Calf Finisher is a high protein and high fat option in our lineup scientifically formulated to help promote finish and muscle development. Finisher is a popular option amongst elite feeders who are looking for that extra "punch" and bulk everywhere needed in today's show ring. 

How much Sunglo Calf Finisher do I feed and when should I start?

Calf Finisher should be fed at no more than 2.5-3% of your calf's bodyweight per head per day. Every animal will respond differently, but that's a good rule of thumb. Calf Finisher can be fed at any time in the feeding phase when a higher energy and higher protein diet is needed. Many feeders have found success feeding it the last 120 days prior to their target show. The actual starting date for this feed will depend on breed, weight, maturity, age and desired level of finish for your calf. 

Feeding Tips

Slowing Rate of Gain: If calves are gaining too rapidly, it may be necessary to use one of the following options:

• Decrease the daily allotment of Sunglo Show Calf Feed by 2-4 lbs., OR
• Add Sunglo Full Tank^™ and feed at a rate of 1-5 lbs. per head per day to meet desired weight gain.

Difficult Finishing: Some large-frame calves may require longer finishing periods or increased energy density in the finishing ration to achieve the desired finish.

• To increase energy, feed half Sunglo Show Calf Developer and half Sunglo Show Calf Finisher.
• Add 1-3 lbs. of Sunglo LiquaFAT^™ to reach desired finish.

Going Off Feed (Burnout): This feed has been carefully formulated to promote consumption. However, should your calf experience a drop in feed consumption of more than 10% of targeted daily feed intake for more than two days, blend in Sunglo 2 the Fullest with Cob^™ at a rate up to 1/2 of daily intake to enhance appetite. A more dramatic drop in feed consumption may require going back to the beginning and re-initiating your calf to feed. In either case, return to Sunglo Show Calf Grower ration should be done gradually. Should your calf go completely off feed, consult your veterinarian. 

Important Management Tips

• Always provide access to fresh, clean water.
• Check weight gains at set time intervals and adjust daily feeding rate as needed until target weight is reached.
• Cattle should have access to high quality grass hay. 
• Always transition slowly from one ration to another to help avoid digestive upset.
