[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 1617312, member: 6897"] The negative aspects of feeding fine ground "corn" or other feed is grossly over stated. Most beef cattle seldom get "large" amount of feed and with most commercial feeds a very small percentage of that is actually "corn" and whether it is whole, chopped or ground is of little consequence. Dairy cattle consume from 28 to 32 lbs. of "grain" per day everyday with no real adverse affects as they also consume another 30-35 pounds of roughage. There will always be the occasional case of acidosis but will be a very small % of the entire herd. At the low rate many beef cattle are feed commercial feed the cattle hardly know they've been fed anyway. [/QUOTE]
