Abstract:

The number of cattle concentrated in small areas is increasing in Kansas. Conditioning new cattle is a major problem in some operations. This experiment studied effects of adding a combination of chlortetracycline-sulfamethazine on weight gain, feed efficiency and general health when fed to beef calves after they were weaned and shipped.
