[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 971361, member: 6897"] Most all of it is ground now and most carry a crude protein value of 8% so there is definitely some seed and some cotton in the mix. I've never seen anyone have any problems with it, dairy or beef. Call it infertility or sterility...either way the bull produces no viable sperm. But it is temporary. It usually takes no more than the 30-60 days mentioned for the bull to be back to normal. Years ago country gins simply burned the stuff, then some started almost giving it away "as is" with the burrs being whole....last time I priced any was during the last drought and it was around $85 a ton delivered to the farm bulk. Works very well in a TMR. I'm told many farmers are no longer using a herbicide material for defoliating but are going more with an acid based defoliate. [/QUOTE]
