is anyone feeding this to fatten cattle? :cboy:

I know of a large Hereford breeder in my area that does he has access to a cheap supply. Man does his young bulls standing by the road for sell look good.
 
I feed rice brand to my cows on pasture and top what ever feed I'm giving to the ones in lots . Its 12% protein 12% fiber 12% fat and its about 100 aton here in S.E. Tx. For me it works
 
You have to make sure your cattle have lots of fiber in their diet when feeding rice bran. It has very little fiber, but good protein and lots of fat. Here is a link to a feed composition report. Rice Bran will be at the bottom under the by-product feeds.

For you guys in the know...is their a better supplement for cattle on hay than rice bran for the cost? $95 a ton.
