[QUOTE="deenranch, post: 855043, member: 6465"] I would feed the corn stalks first. I would also go with regular 20% cubes. Cotton is scarce this year and cotton seed cubes are going to be extremely high. Put the hay ring on the corn hay before you cut the net or string off. I would also try a liquid feed. It will make the cows feel fuller. Keep in mind that your cows are gonna look like hammered poop (skinny) when spring rolls around. Figure out a day in the spring that you think you will stop feeding. Then take the number of bales you have and see what day you need to put a bale out. Stretch it as far as you can. Just make sure they have plenty of water. Because there is not any moisture in the grass or most of the hay, if you bought it in TEXAS!!! Good luck and keep PRAYING FOR RAIN [/QUOTE]
