[QUOTE="StrojanHerefords, post: 1830256, member: 42988"] We bought a 50 gallon liquid feeder. It paid for itself the first time we filled it up. The liquid feed is alright. The nice thing is that everything gets a chance to eat. The problem is that it is what it is and if the cows need more it doesn’t work. We aren’t at this point set up to feed commodities to the cows but it is a cheaper way of getting the right feed into the cows. A good starting point to would be to feed 3 pounds a head per day of whole cottonseed fed every third day or three times a week. WCS has plenty of phosphorus so all you need is a low phosphorus mineral with an ionophore. The important thing is to make sure everything can eat. I make feeders out of plastic barrels cut in half and bolted together. I can’t stand Tractor Supply, the stuff it sells is hobby grade. [/QUOTE]
