Creep Feed
ADM creep feed products and program advantages include several benefits to the animal, the owner and the operation. ADM programs are designed to achieve maximum calf growth potential and at the same time enhance carcass quality. Formulated and fed correctly, creep feeds help achieve shorter weaning stress periods by providing highly palatable feed to encourage intake. The results are faster starts in the feedlot arrival phase, increased stocking rates and the flexibility to fit into economic feeding programs and goals.

Beef Creep/Growers
14% or 16% protein options, 2% fat, no more than 25% fiber
Hydroxy form of copper – Higher mineral potency, better handling characteristics and bypasses the rumen for more absorption
Complexed (organic) trace minerals – More readily available compared to inorganic mineral sources for better absorption; trace minerals are crucial to immune function, skin and hoof integrity, muscle development, bone growth and maintenance, metabolism and digestion
Proprietary form of cobalt – Highly soluble, facilitates more efficient utilization of roughage and enhances production of vitamin B12
2-6 lb per head daily
Pellet; 50-lb bag and bulk

Premium creep feed for growing beef cattle incorporates ADM’s AminoGain® technology, which supplies rumen bypass amino acids, and optimizes rumen fermentation
16% protein, 2% fat, no more than 25% fiber
Hydroxy form of copper – Higher mineral potency, better handling characteristics and bypasses the rumen for more absorption
Complexed (organic) zinc – More readily available compared to inorganic zinc for better absorption which is especially beneficial to stressed calves; important for immune function, skin and hoof integrity and muscle development
Proprietary source of cobalt – Highly soluble, facilitates more efficient utilization of roughage and enhances production of vitamin B12
2-6 lb per head daily
