[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 1607515, member: 694"] So someone blew smoke about grass with 5% protein is better than hay with 12%. Last I checked hay was grass as well. All the time the cow is walking off pounds trying to fill a holler belly on low quality forage. We used to not feed a bale of hay back in the 60’s and 70’s and most cows did survive the winters. BCS suffered conception rates were horrible. It took 15 or so of those back forty cows to make 10 of the beef animals today. We didn’t vaccinate either because there weren’t any, good chance over half your cows weren’t producing due to bangs or lepto. Big difference in owning cattle and beef production. [/QUOTE]
