[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 14992"] The only thing that get grain on my farm (in New York) is our showstring and our weaned heifers thru the winter til safe in calf. We only calve a few in the fall, and we put them with our bred first & second calf heifers, on good grass baleage. We do have a creep feeder set up for the winter calves. Our showstring is fed a 15% protein pelleted feed, with beet pulp pellets & a yeast/lactobacillis powder added (all minerals are included - our own formula). We lower our protein content of the pellets to about 12.5% for the winter ration for our weaned calves. Other than that, we feed large dry grass hay bales & wet grass baleage.
