Moldy sweet feed?

[Black and Good]

I bought a bunch of slightly moldy sweet feed that was priced super cheap. Some bag are worse than others. They eat it like nothings wrong with it. If I'm only feeding it to the cows every few will it hurt anything? Also would it hurt to put some in a smaller creep feeder maybe couple bags at a time? Thanks for any input. :compute: B&G

I personally would not feed it to any thing but chickens ,and they would get free choice that way they could pick threw it , moldy grain can cause all kinds of problems
but that is just my :2cents: for what it is worth

No trouble at all.. Well besides abortions.

Probably won't hurt anything...cows can handle molds/mycotoxins that are devastating to monogastrics(horses, pigs, poultry)... but do you want to risk it?
If you lose a cow... or calf... is it worth what you 'saved' buying cheap moldy feed?

Steers & bulls = maybe
Cows & heifers = no

Most feeds carry a warning "Never feed molded or insect infested feed". That's good enough for me.
