[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 810882, member: 7509"] Speaking as a person who had two heifers I let graze corn too long in their second trimester and paid the price for it at calving time, I would be very concerned about feeding cows that are going to calve in 30 days too much corn silage. I am not an expert in silage by any means. It is my understanding that most of the calf's in uterine growth occurs in that last month before calving. I personally would not be feeding them too much corn in any form just ahead of calving. Seems to me that you could end up with some huge calves and huge calving problems. jmho and experience. Good luck. Jim [/QUOTE]
