[QUOTE="IL cow man, post: 850558, member: 16742"] I would suggest staying away from the fescue hay this year. It is highly likely that most was mowed and baled tooooo late, because it stayed too wet in the areas where there is hay. Too wet too long means over mature most likely. You might be able to buy straw bales and ammoniate them with anhydrous. I've never done this before, but it could be an option. Straw, cornstalks and other low quality forages blended with gluten or distillers could be another option. In your area cotton cake or other products are probably available. A few years ago I heard of a 1000 cow operation in Indiana was feeding only staw and gluten mixed together and were buying it from someone already mixed. It might be a good alternative business for someone to blend and ship this south. just thinking out loud. [/QUOTE]
