[QUOTE="RBBrangus, post: 58574, member: 998"] We run a small herd of registered brangus cows in north florida and are preparing for breeding season. We are AIing about 20-30 cows in about 60 days and were planning on feeding a supplement in an attempt to get as many possible bred to AI. We have fed bulk soy hull pellets in the past, but this gets to be pretty labor intensive as we have other jobs. We also have limited equipment which includes a small tractor with no front-end loader, a flatbed, and bunk feeders. Our method of feeding in the past has been to fill the flatbed with feed at the local grain dealer, store the flatbed in the barn, shovel the feed into buckets, and then carry it to the bunk feeders on the tractor. Does anybody have any ideas on a way to feed that would be less labor intensive and wouldn't empty our wallets??? [/QUOTE]
