[QUOTE="George Monk, post: 202727, member: 3545"] We supplement our cow herd with 2 pounds of grain/hd/day for the entire lifetime of the cow. There are some who say they never feed and others that say additional energy is good. I have some cows that are having there 11 calf with us and look in great condition. Out of the original 13 cows that I bought in 96 we still have 8 left. Only one was shipped due to "condition" and that was because she had an internal hernia. the others were sold because they threw red white face calves ( :) nothing wrong with red white face that is another post! :) ) and some lack of production concerns. I am not saying I am right (mostly inexperienced) but I would like to here a discussion about this and the longevity of the brood cow. [/QUOTE]
