[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 576091, member: 4353"] On the cost issue... Why not just buy enough of either barley or corn and good alfalfa hay, buy the protein concentrates and mix your own feed exactly like a feedlot would do for a fraction of the cost of commercial show feeds? Learning how to feed out a steer like in real world conditions would be a valuable learning school for the kids instead of just testing whose parents' pockets are the deepest and the results would be very similar.
