[QUOTE="Texas PaPaw, post: 948880, member: 2905"] Why does the jg hay need to be limited to only 50%? Where are you located? Would think it would be hard to limit the jg hay to 50% if fed free choice. Any other hay you could alternate feeding with the jg? I suppose you could limit access to the jg bales to only 1-2 hrs a day or every other day and hold the cows in a separate trap the rest of the time to limit feed the ddgs or whatever. Soy hulls are the first thing that come to mind but they have gotten terribly expensive. Maybe look into some of the rice byproducts, corn stalks or other crop residues. Probably need to find a good feed broker and nutritionist, but do it NOW as their phones are probably starting to ring off the hook. Last year some Texas brokers quit taking new customers as they were having trouble finding enough ingredients for their existing customers. Are you aware that the high sulfur levels in the ddgs will cause problems if too much is fed. Probably need to test the sulfur levels in your water also. [/QUOTE]
