[QUOTE="Texas PaPaw, post: 172665, member: 2905"] rc 7 lb/hd/day will provide .91lb crude protein. Per Morrison, this would be adequate for a dry cow in good BCS. IMO-For dry cows of low BCS, would probably need 9-10lb/hd/day to gain weight. For nursing cows, probably need 10-12 lb/day to maintain weight & 12-15 lb/day for weight gain. The fat content will provide a good source of energy. If all cows are of equal BCS, it would probably be beneficial to separate dry cows from nursing cows. This would allow the nursing cows to get the additional feed they need, without overfeeding the dry cows. The nutrtional needs from highest to lowest are: 1. Thin nursing cows 2. Medium fleshed nursing cows & thin dry cows 3. Medium fleshed dry cows JMO Good luck & best regards Brock [/QUOTE]
