[QUOTE="J+ Cattle, post: 1776253, member: 4063"] If they have a lick tub and decent pasture, they probably don't need the cubes, but you said that you're using the cubes to keep the cows tame and coming to you. For that reason, I would suggest keeping feeding the cubes but maybe less, cut it to one bag per weekend just as a treat. The last part of your question I'm not sure I completely follow, cost wise there's a huge difference between the two options. Cubes are $96/month Hay bale is $25/day Maybe pictures of your cattle and the pasture conditions would help us know what to recommend. Also, as a general statement I would say that most people are overstocked based on their pasture conditions. Be prepared because the recommendation could be to sell some of your cows. Otherwise, all of your potential profits are going to the feed store. [/QUOTE]
