[QUOTE="callmefence, post: 1377081, member: 24947"] We have used tubs quite a bit. With just me and the wife both working full time the convenience was worth the price. We will have some help this year with feeding and won't be using them. Tubs are good if you have dry grass or poor hay. Keep in mind that any protien listed as non protien nitrogen is urea. It contributes little nutritionally , it allows the cow to utilize more forage. You will burn through your grass or hay faster. Natural protien tubs are available but even more spendy. A cooked tub is a must. There are alot cheaper ways to supplement protien. But if you can't get to them everyday tubs have a place. I hope I got that right Texasbred. :cboy: [/QUOTE]
