[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 208686, member: 1715"] I refilled the creeps this Friday. I estimated that they were eating 8# per head per day the first week they were on 80/20 Accuration. Since they average about 550# that is 1.4% of body weight. I switched to a 70/30 blend to reduce intake but the cost per ton of feed went up about $30. It seems unnatural to pay more for the feed so they will like to eat it less... My feed sales guy says 1% of BW on pasture is fine since they eat alot of "small snacks." Any tips on minimizing the feed cost per pound of gain? [/QUOTE]
