Getting Fat and Woolly.

[sim.-ang.king]

Went and checked on some of the cows and heifers out on pasture waiting for february. They are going to be put out on corn stocks later in dec. to get some more fat on them, but I don't know if they are really going to need it. This pasture has lot of persimmon trees on it and the cows really gain a lot when they start to fall.

Why wait until December to put them on the cornstalks? Your climate could be different than we have here in SW Ohio, but I found the stalks will deteriorate while the fescue is still accumulating some growth. And if it snows, that fescue will be as good under snow as it is right now, not so with the corn stalks.

Well it's probably the right thing to do but time isn't going to work out that way, because of some issues that i'm not going to go into. They are on 62 acres of grass so they probably wouldn't even need the corn stocks really, and would be fine.
