[QUOTE="cowlady1, post: 450926, member: 5464"] The protein is to high for mineral intake. Calcium, magnesium is to low. If it's not in the feed your vet will be their every day. You need to get a balance in that feed. Hay should be checked to see whats missing as well as other forges. It would be a good place to start. The second cut hay I got is really messed up. I can't feed any to my feeders thats jeresy or jeresy-X I've had 1 die & put magnesium into the rest. The ones treated are alive but I can't feed that hay to them. I'm using 1st cut& alfalfa cubes on them they seem to be doing okay with that. Holsteins can handle the 2nd cut hay on 2 of 1st/1 of 2nd cut ratio.I'm hoping this hay will get better with age. I bought this hay & it wasn't made like it should have been. To early was 1 problem. To dry when cut was another set of problems.This can happen from 1 field to another differences. [/QUOTE]
