[QUOTE="novaman, post: 702426, member: 2744"] You can get away feeding them for several days but I don't recommend it. The more often you feed the less hay will be wasted IMO. The cows will clean up what they've been given (assuming they are not given extra). The next day they get just what they need and on and on. If you throw out 6 days worth of hay they are going to do as mss said and mill through it, eating what they want and neglecting the rest. Even with a bale feeder my cows will reach in and pull out a huge wad and drop most of it on the ground outside the feeder. After chewing a bit they go back in and grab another wad. I guess waste would be my concern. If your not concerned about waste then go for it. [/QUOTE]
