[QUOTE="hillsdown, post: 700801, member: 5106"] My herd for winter feed this year has 235 large bales (in that is 70 bales of 14% protien green feed) 285 small sqaure second cut 18% protien alfalfa bales and 110 1st cut small squares. 111 large straw bales and 10000 lbs of steam rolled barley. They will also get protien tubs and of course the minerals and salt they need. I sure hope that is enough to get us through. My 130+ head herd now consists of 23 bred cows 10 replacement heifers ans 3 bull calves.. :( All the rest were sold due to lack of feed. Last year because of the bitter cold longgggggggg winter we went through 600 bales of hay. So do like everyone has said and always plan for more hay than you will need. It is not fun to get caught with your pants down in -40 weather. [/QUOTE]
