[QUOTE="forrest, post: 839609, member: 16611"] I don't know if I am feeding enough to justify it or not but we are feeding about 200 lbs a day. I have always just bought in 50lb bags by the ton. Seems if I bought it bulk it would be a lot cheaper? I have never really been around bulk feeding so I am not sure how the logistics work. If I buy one of those gravity fed silos that holds a ton or two will the feed store come fill it up? If so are the delivery charges on a quantity that size going to wipe out the cost savings or do they deliver for free? Actually getting the feed to my cows once it is here is no problem I can just put it in the bucket of the tractor and dump it in the feed bunk but I am more concerned about how I get it to my place and how I store it and if i can do it cost effectively.
