Cheap feed Jim, I forget, what is the protean %, and the oil should be good energy, and make a slick hair coat.

The protein is 10.5-11.

I thought it was higher than that. Not bad I guess.

About like corn, or wheat then. Roger may be talking about a Mexican motorcycle that runs on tequila. laugh

Or, a flame burner that burns off spines off cactus, so cattle will eat them.

does the safflower shells provide the scratch for the cows to absorb like cob? Don't think I would like to get involved in a cattle company, the old saying of how to make a little money ranching is to start out with a lot of money comes to mind

The TDN is 62. Not sure if that is good or not.

Net energy is 56.

No idea!

Cattle can use rough feed that other livestock, other than sheep, and goats can not. The ways they raise cattle all over the world are interesting to me.
Beet pulp, cotton seed hulls, cull potatoes, beet tops, citrus pulp, and many others can be good feed for cattle.

Jim, give those calves a day or two and they will be chowing it down in record time!


It takes a week or so to get all the bred heifers cake broke. 3/4", they pick it up, spit it out, repeat, munch down....



Roger, I refer to my wife as the weed burner......
(joke)


Pear burner?

What I have read is that this feed should just be a supplement.

Otherwise it screws up the digestion.


We will keep an eye on their schit!

I am sure the birds will too. Game birds love a hot meal in the winter time.......

Normally the birds stick around to eat the buffalo berry and Russian olive and then head south. This year they just high tailed it.


Thinking about it later he was right. We had a fairly bird free fall. They were gone before our first bad storm in October.

Had the opposite here. The birds never ate any berries from my mountain ash before this year. They picked it clean along with all the grapes off my vines


If you love someone set them free
If they come back no one else liked them
Set them free again

This afternoon we hauled the 'lawn' deer their very own round bale. Picked a good one and set it a 1/4 mile from my parent's yard. All kind of deer and the dingo raises a ruckus, barks, keeps my folks up at night....



Whitetail feeding out in the open all day, getting pretty tame.


Meanwhile in unrelated news....

The cows were fighting so....

coyotes like a hot meal as well, good time to whack them as they should be pairing up
