[QUOTE="bmoore87, post: 1181545, member: 21684"] Some type of hard surface to feed on is definetley a good thing to have in a dry lot situation. Also I do like the U of MN calculator for what lucky said and since you can test your feeds and modify them in it. Also cow weight, trimester and for those of us up north air temperature can be adjusted. For us it seemed like the calculator overfed for the most part so we fed under the recommended levels and the cows stayed in a 5 to 6 BCS. Just keep and eye on your cows and adjust as you go because a lot of it can change based on the type of cows you have but it is a good starting point. [/QUOTE]
