[QUOTE="TheBullLady, post: 617664, member: 173"] We also creep feed routinely.. and I've never noticed a marked problem with calves going through a fence. As mentioned previously, the more curious ones will get in places you'd never consider, but I don't think being able to get into a feeder makes any difference. And I totally understand your pain, as we are also in a horrible drought. And we've also spent a lot of years getting our herd where it is, so "selling them off" is not an option. Seedstock producers are a generally producing something totally different than terminal crosses, and have a lot more invested. And frankly, what does it matter how much a producer wants to spend on maintaining his herd? That should be the producers personal decision, not something to ridicule. [/QUOTE]
