[QUOTE="CattleMan1920, post: 1571524, member: 37967"] Mine are now down to around 1-2 pounds of supplementation a day, and they are transitioning to grass. I put hay in the rings and they take a lot longer to go through a bale. The hay will be removed soon, and then the daily grain ration pulled down even further, just a little each day to get their attention for moving them around from lot to lot and for any other reason I might need them to move for me. With that said, they will be almost entirely on grass and clover soon, and the older cows will not drop below 1700 unless we have a drought or something drastic happens. They will maintain that size off grass as long as they are not crowded. The same goes for the 1800+ pounders, they won’t suddenly drop weight, they might lose some, but not much once the hit the grass. They have plenty of grass, shade and fresh water, no stress either, that keeps the weight on. [/QUOTE]
