[QUOTE="dun, post: 110599, member: 34"] A couple of years ago, during the last drought, we fed fairly low quality hay and a couple of pounds per head.day of straight CG pellets. Made the cows loose as a goose, just like fresh green grass. Some wouldn;t eat them, others sucked them up like candy. If seen the same problem with them even in complete feeds. The palatability issue seems to be strictly an individual cow thing. They make up about 50% of our weaning ration and we've had no problems, but the same cows that didn't like them straight won;t eat the mix either. It's really down to only one of those cows that's left and she'll be hitting the bricks in another couple of months when we wean. New heifers are sometimes kind of piccky about eating it at first but seem to get over it fairly quickly. A neighbor has a half dozen cows that won;t touch anything with them in it at all. Cows, go figure! dun [/QUOTE]
