[QUOTE="dun, post: 135429, member: 34"] Excellent point. And the more feeding stations, i.e holes in the feeder, you have the less waste. If you have 20 feeding stations and 20 animals they will jostle for those spots and end up getting a mouth full and being pushed away and dropping a significant amount. If they can stand with their heads in the feeder and have to back out they will tend to eat more without dropping it on the ground. We use around a 3:2 ratio of feeding points to cows and our waste has gone done a lot. dun [/QUOTE]
