[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 836511, member: 6897"] AC guess I was a little vague....Anytime i speak of feeding anything I'm talking about "pounds fed" on an "as fed" basis. As you said, bale weight vary tremendously so just need to speak in lbs. Baleage being at least 3 times as high in moisture requires that we feed three times as much to get the same amount of dry matter. Some of it will be even higher in moisture and require even a higher feeding rate. A lot of dairies in this area feed it but don't know of any beef operations feeding it although it would work well if you have the equipment to handle it. Personally I'd probably just cut it like silage and put it in a bunke silo and feed it like silage. [/QUOTE]
