We have our first cows -- 3 angus heifers due to calve in early Feb. They are on about 12 A of good fescue that grew tall after early summer mowing. I assume that the standing grass, while being pretty much the same as hay, may be losing nutrition value. There is plenty of grass, but should we add a protein tub or other supplement to ensure good health? The cows look good (to an untrained eye) and seem content. I have read here that calving problems can be caused by overfeeding (esp. in a heifer). Suggestions from some of you pros will be appreciated!
