[QUOTE="DiamondSCattleCo, post: 225495, member: 2862"] I find it interesting how people swing that righteous paint brush around without actually giving thought to environments other than their own. I've never creep fed my calves before, however this year I'm definitely going to, at least on my commercials. My cows are doing their jobs, I think, since they wean close to half their weight in calves after 5 months. But most people in the area have gained close to 100 lbs weaning weight with the addition of creep feed. Since we're wet up here, our summer grass doesn't have alot of value in it. Creep feeding eases the stress on the cow, stress on the calves, makes weaning easier, and pencils out (about 30 bucks worth of oats for 100 extra pounds). Rod [/QUOTE]
