[QUOTE="bird dog, post: 1472141, member: 5381"] I pay for $90 for a 225lb 30% "all you need" cooked tub. Has a few more minerals than the usual tub. I don't feed a lot of them, just a few from mid Dec. until early Feb. My cows have young calves and I know my hay is only around 8 to 9 %. I'm sure its not the cheapest way to go but my labor is valuable and its hard to feed cubes to more than a dozen animals to where they all get their share. Troughs are not feasible with the herd rotating every week to 10 days and cubes get mashed into the ground when its muddy. The calves lick the tubs right along side their mom. Gives both of them a healthier coat and seems to cut down on the snotty noses. They are worth it to me. [/QUOTE]
