[QUOTE="bullred, post: 162734, member: 1733"] Stocky, I think we're both heading in the same direction. What I'm saying is that a lot of people I've talked to have the notion that if creep feeding calves, the cows will be required to produce less milk. That's not the case. The cow's still going to produce the same amount of milk, and the calf's going to take all they'll produce, then go looking for something else if they still are hungry. But I agree with you, that if there's something else there for them they'll be less likely to keep coming back to the dry udder of a cow that's trying to graze. [/QUOTE]
