[QUOTE="chippie, post: 814058, member: 5644"] She is drying up and without additional feed and quality hay, the chances are she is done until she has another calf. And if you are not going to feed her, you might as well dry her up. You can't expect her to make much milk on grass alone, epecially at this time of the year. She needs the grain to produce milk. Besides the dairy feed, our cows are fed alfalfa hay in addition to good quality Jiggs Coastal hay. You can't feed a milk cow crappy hay and expect her to produce. If anyone told you differently, they told you wrong. I suggest that you buy The Family Cow (A Garden Way publishing book) [Paperback] Dirk Van Loon (Author) [URL]http://www.amazon.com/dp/0882660667/?tag=cattletoday00-20[/URL] [/QUOTE]
