The thread on Protein Tubs has really taught me something! We had "experts" claiming that no cow could possibly eat one pound of salt, other "experts" claim that one pound of salt per day was so outrageous that it would cause a cow to drink 100 gallons of water per day, another "expert" claims that anything from cottonseed would destroy a bull! I have neighbors with three or four cows that do nothing but feed 3-n-1 or 2-n-1 salt mix. Anyone that has ever walked into a real feed store knows about range meal and 3-n-1. I have come to the conclusion that 5% of yall are real cattlemen like Burno, Camp, Bez and and few others; 5% of yall like Saltydawg are new to the business, freely acknowledge it and seek good valueable advice; the other 90% of yall, including some with "guru" status, are nothing but total frauds that may or may not own a pet show heifer or two!
My biggest grip starting in the cattle business 30 years ago, was that no one would talk you. I was left to the mercy of the snake oil salesmen and every lesson I learned cost a ton of money and time. If someone is new and doesn't understand something I am more than happy to share. By no means do I have a lock on all cattle knowledge, there is just to much to learn. It is great if I can communicate with people that have similar problems and maybe get some help for myself.
It would be a help if you would quit trying to play the great pretender. Don't sit there and treat the last article you read like something you learned from 20 years of doing. These could be a great site for experienced and inexperienced alike as well as long as the frauds quit trying to blow smoke up everyone's butt. The sad part is that some beginner will actually believe you and spend a ton of time and money finding out you have no idea what you're talking about.
