I just got done fencing in a 5 acres hayfield last week, the stockpiled forage looks great.(since June 2010)
On Tuesday, I let my 3 head, one of them new to me registered Bred Hereford cow out on that lush grass.
Thursday mornin i was yellin MAMA COW, up they come a runnin, I dumped half a bucket of shell corn on the ground so I could get a look at the new cow,, they came up ate for 60 seconds left the corn and went back on grass.
I couldn't believe my eyes.
Guess they like grass,,,, but if im eating them ill take a little corn with'em
Also Im set, I kicked the hay habit,, this year. maybe next as well till i buy more cows and learn how to strip graze.
just in case i have 2.5tons in the barn
