[QUOTE="BRG, post: 228678, member: 2397"] I agree with mtnman on the seedstock supplier side. Every situation is different of course, but in my experience. If you are trying to sell bulls, it needs to be done with grass and mommas milk alone until they are weaned. You will never know what your cows can do or which one is the best if you creep. Your customers don't want pampered genetics so why should we have them ourselves. Now, like I said, every situation is different, it may be a drought and you would like to make the grass last a little longer, or maybe your grass is extremely washy and they just don't get enough nutrients from it, or maybe you are using a bunch of average to below average recip cows for an embryo program and you don't want a bunch of 400 lbs calves. These are all example of why you should maybe creep feed your seedstock supplying cows. But in my situation, on my ranch, nothing gets creep fed. I like to know what I am working for and what to cull. [/QUOTE]
