Yeast of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (SCY) origin has over long time been incorporated into
domestic animal diets. In calves, several products have offered improved performance and …

Simple Summary Under natural grazing systems, calves are likely to consume forage in
early life. However, forage inclusion in the diet of pre-weaned calves has long been a …

Background Previous investigations into the effect of dietary forage on calf performance
have been inconsistent, and there is a paucity of information exploring the effect of age on …

Young, weaned calves are commonly offered ad libitum forage with limited amounts of
starter, in contrast to the suggested amount of approximately 5% forage in the diet due to the …

The hypothesis of the current study was that steam-flaking corn grain will increase ruminal
available starch, but reduce undegradable protein reaching the small intestine and hence …

Background In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in using high quantities of
milk or milk replacer (MR) in heat-stressed calves to alleviate the negative effects of high …

The aim of this study was to assess the potential consequences on calf intake, performance,
behavior, ruminal microbiome, and ruminal epithelium development of combining the …

The literature on whether or not to feed forage is marked by inconsistencies, largely due to
various factors associated with forage inclusion in calf diets. To elucidate these factors, we …

The objective of this study was to assess the effects of intake-based weaning methods and
forage type on feeding behavior and growth of dairy calves. Holstein dairy calves (n= 108) …

This study evaluated the interactive effects of forage provision on performance, nutritional
behavior, apparent digestibility, rumen fermentation, and blood metabolites of dairy calves …
