What is breed,age,and size? If he hasnt had any grain, id start out with 1/4-1/2 of a 5 gallon bucket each day or morning and night for a couple of weeks to be sure he will eat it and doesnt get the scours/bloat. Then increase a little at a time until he is on self feed. Ive seen most get them started on feed to being on full feed in about 4-6 weeks.If he"s at 400 lb and you want him at 1300 it could take 8 months.

I assume you are just talking about ground ear or shelled corn for feed.
