[QUOTE="broncohunter, post: 1402734, member: 27464"] Im been snooping around a lot and finally decided to join this week. I've been through the search bar and still can't find the info I'm looking for. I have been kicking around the idea of feeding heifers from 400 to 700. I have access to ddg straight from distillery and plan to mix in cottonseed hulls. Free choice decent hay and mineral. The pasture is at par at best but would have zero land cost for me. Some people have said 2.25lbs are possible, some have said maybe 1.5lbs. I also keeping getting different amounts to feed was planning on 1% to 1.5% body weight a day. I don't live on the property so drive time is involved and would need 2lbs a day to really make it worth it. Thanks in advance for any advice. [/QUOTE]
