[QUOTE="Gliderider, post: 185618, member: 3296"] Thanks for the replies. I talked to the man I'm buying from and he feeds them cracked corn, but only a handful to get them to come. I will get my hay tested before they get here. I really like the fact that they can survive on what others would starve on. You have a good point about not ruining them with feed. I certainly don't want to do that. We have enough pasture for them to thrive on. Normally I wouldn't even be feeding hay, but we also had a bad summer for rain. Not nearly as bad as out west but bad anough to kill any chance of grass this winter. I feed the horses grain, mainly because 2 of the 3 I own are, 21 and 24 years old. The two calves get grain for adding weight. Bez- You've got some great looking cattle! Caustic- I certainly don't want to play the losers game. I tend to lose when I do. :D Thanks again for the replies. [/QUOTE]
