[QUOTE="deerefan, post: 1837341, member: 38173"] Thank you all for your help. Just to be clear, I am definitely not trying to starve these cattle to save a dollar. Most of the time, majority of the cattle look very good. Every time the vet has come out, he always comments on how good my cattle look. Even now, with no pasture for the past 6 weeks, most look very good with some being fat. There are only a handful that look poor. This is why I have not been feeding them more, I try and follow what the majority look like. Going forwards, could you please give me some credible guidelines on how much hay you recommend feeding dry and lactating cows? Also, your recommendations on the amount of protein cubes to be supplemented. I plan on doing some hay analysis asap, hopefully this will add some useful information but I only bale fertilized coastal. Also, I am confused. Is the general recommendation not to worm after 3 years of age? I have worked with local ranchers before and they would worm every cow once a year. Thank you all again. [/QUOTE]
