[QUOTE="IluvABbeef, post: 522127, member: 3739"] number one: what dun and Dave said. number two: why feed grain three times a day when you already have the estimated amount to feed in a day anyway? And what kind of grain are you going to feed them? (Keep in mind the type of grain you feed depends on the different amounts or percentage of energy and protein available in that grain, which will give you a [slightly] different rate of gain.) Number three, 20 rolls of hay (the big round bales) probably won't last your projected number of months; depending on the weight of each bale and the forage quality. 5 weaners on one bale will last about a month, but as they grow it will last a little shorter each time. Especially if it's the real good quality hay; a group of 20+ calves on one bale they will gobble it up overnight. But you don't have 20 calves...or I should say don't WANT 20 calves... [/QUOTE]
