[QUOTE="MrBilly, post: 456980, member: 87"] I agree a good mineral is necessary, but a mineral is not going to provide the necessary protein. With the drought much of our hay this year has very little protein. It gives them something to chew on, but very little protein nutrition. Like many folks, once we get into winter, there is no grass, only hay. If you wait until you see their ribs to start feeding a supplement , then you, and they, are going to be behind the eight ball. This is why testing the hay you feed is important. IF the hay is of good forage quality by testing, you don't need a supplement of protein, but if it is poor, you want to give some type of supplement consideration - there are many types out their.
