Greetings,
Wanted to see the input/success/failures of others who have tried a group of stockers.
Looking at 3-4 CWT calves would like all steers but will probably be a mix of heifers and steers.
Have 70 acres of fenced and currently stockpiled grass.
Looking to see stocking rate recommended would be and put together a pot load to take off when gains accomplished
Wanting to use minimal inputs other than minerals, salts, fly prevention, vaccines, deworming protocol.
Thought about supplementing with a 3 way blend of corn gluten, soy hulls, cracked corn.
We have cow calf operation on other part of farm. Just looking at stocking/backgrounding a group and taking off once at potload numbers/weight.
Thanks
JR
