Umbarger Dairy Beef ’Em Up was built with one goal in mind: help dairy-influenced calves look more like beef cattle. Dairy genetics often grow frame easily but struggle to express muscle, rib shape, and body mass. This feed is designed to correct that imbalance.

By combining balanced protein, controlled energy, and effective fiber, Dairy Beef ’Em Up promotes muscle development and body capacity without pushing calves into excessive fat or heat. It allows dairy-type calves to stay fresh, flexible, and structurally sound while developing the power and shape needed to be competitive in the show ring.

This feed works best during the core development window, when calves are still growing but need help shifting from frame growth to a more beef-oriented look.

Choose this feed if:

  • You are feeding dairy or dairy-cross calves

  • Calves need more body, rib, and muscle shape

Dairy Beef ’Em Up is not recommended for:

  • Beef-bred calves that already express muscle easily

  • Late finishing or push phases

(In those cases, transition to a performance grower or finisher feed.)


Dairy Beef ’Em Up is a grower ration formulated to help dairy-influenced calves express more muscle, body, and shape while maintaining freshness and structural correctness. It bridges the gap between dairy genetics and beef-type performance.
