Does anybody have some good links for some research concerning feeding straight rolled corn during the winter to breeding stock? For some reason, my dad feeds rolled corn to all his cows/bulls/calves during the winter. They also get plenty of high grade alfalfa. He warms them up by feeding very little corn and then builds up the amount as it gets colder. I refuse to feed corn to my seedstock. I use 20% breeders cubes, alfalfa, minerals, salt, protien tubs, and some blue stem that we baled.
It seems like I read (or heard) something that said feeding too much corn can have an adverse affect on bulls. His cows are as fat as a "town dog" but I am scared to feed the rolled corn to my bulls.
Does anyone have any comments or links to research on the effect of feeding straight rolled corn to breeding stock?
Thanks
