A few other words of advice on top of what is already here... if you are new to raising calves, consider holding off til spring. We market a lot of bull calves direct to buyers, and we have some experienced buyers who won't buy from Dec til March or April. It is just easier for them to work with- less poor weather, weather extremes, etc. You can raise calves in the winter, but if you've never done it before, January or Feb isn't the best time to start.
I think the best advice below is to find a healthy feeder steer, and skip the early part this time. The early time is the hardest, and is a pricey time per lb of gain when you have to buy milk replacer, etc.

This is the place! Bought
