Cattle creep refers to a system designed to provide supplemental feed to young calves while allowing them to access it without allowing access to adult cattle. This system typically consists of a specially designed feeder or enclosure that young animals can enter, but adult animals cannot, allowing calves to receive extra nutrition, especially when pasture quality is poor or when they need to gain weight. Creep feeding can be particularly beneficial for maximizing growth rates in weaned calves or when preparing them for sale.
