[QUOTE="dun, post: 1067346, member: 34"] You may be surprised! Properly grown and stockpiled fescue has pretty darn good nutritional value. May not be the most palatible (hamburger rather then T-Bone) but they'll still eat it. Our heifers on just stockpiled pasture over the winter have avg gaines of between 2 and 3.2 lbs a day. When we have had to start feeding hay early instead of just before greenup the avg runs closer to 1.8 to 2.3. Their avg mature weight (taken just after calving) runs 1200-1300 lbs. [/QUOTE]
