[QUOTE="sunnyblueskies, post: 1805633, member: 39112"] I agree with that and what [USER=42463]@Travlr[/USER] said. Doesn't mean I will argue with people choosing to creep feed. Curious though what the math would look like. It would be tough to figure how much more weight the creep feed actually would put on a single calf compared to not creep feed. What would the added cost per pound be? And of course are you gaining it back on sale day. It would make somewhat sense if you have the oats, or whatever you put into the feeder, from your own production, but my assumption is that it would be too high of an expense if you have to buy the feed retail. Has anybody done the math? Care to share? [/QUOTE]
