Two trials evaluated the effects of level of wet @entity4336 gluten feed (WCGF), type of supplemental protein, and supplemental tallow on steer finishing performance. In Trial 1, WCGF was fed at 0, 25 (two diets), or 50% of the dietary @entity3918 replacing dry-rolled @entity4336 (DRC), molasses, and a portion of the supplement. The DRC control diet and one 25% WCGF diet were supplemented with a combination of protein sources. The second 25% WCGF diet was supplemented with @entity1133 alone. The 50% WCGF diet contained no additional protein supplementation. No differences in DMI (P > .10) were observed. @entity291 fed 25% WCGF plus a combination of protein sources or 50% WCGF gained faster (P < .10) and more efficiently (P < .10) than @entity291 fed the DRC control. @entity291 fed 25% WCGF plus @entity1133 gained faster (P < .10) and tended (P = .14) to be more efficient than @entity291 fed the DRC control. In Trial 2, WCGF was fed to replace 0 or 50% of the DRC and the molasses- @entity1133 supplement ( @entity3918 basis). Both diets were fed with or without 3% tallow. Steers fed WCGF gained faster (P < .01) and more efficiently (P < .01) than steers fed DRC. Inclusion of 3% tallow increased gain (P < .05) and improved efficiency (P < .05). Feed efficiency is improved by the addition of WCGF or tallow to DRC finishing diets.
