[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 640455, member: 6897"] If you're in cotton country the seed and hulls should be very good buys. Cottonseed will run closer to 23% protein than 28%. I'd mix 50% cottonseed hulls, 25% corn and 25% whole cottonseed and feed 20 lbs. per head per day. That would give each cow 10 lbs. of hulls, 5 lbs. of seed and 5 pounds of corn. and an overall ration right at 10% Crude Proteion, over 8% fat and 26% fiber level which should be adequate plus the corn and cottonseed will boost the TDN and energy levels to a level that they should do well. Then they can scavenge any old grass they might can find just to finish filling up. [/QUOTE]
