[QUOTE="irked, post: 796589, member: 7861"] while they have some place for absentee ranchers, molasses tubs probably work out better for the manufacturers and purveyors of molasses tubs than they do for cattlemen. particularly in your case where you are able to feed cubes twice per week. if you have plenty of hay (energy) available and are able to feed cubes twice per week, you would get much more bang for your buck by using a 38-40% cube and adjusting the rate fed to the quality of your hay and the condition/lactation/gestation of your cows. so my vote would be that they are never needed for someone like yourself who is able to hand-feed a more economical source of protein.
