[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 1647768, member: 1715"] Depends on your goals and your grass and your cattle... Usually economical to supplement up to 0.5% of body weight daily. Could be protein, could be energy. Protein supplement could be done every third day. Energy supplement should be done daily. Usually need well developed rumens to consider NOT supplementing. The timing for no supplement varies with sex and grass and breed. Being over 600# may work for forage only Angus X steers. [/QUOTE]
