[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 10723"] It's not just the percentage of roughage, it has more to do with the length of the roughage. 3 inches would be the minimum, 4 inches would be better. A lot of silage is chopped way to short and requires mixing with long fiber hay to provide what is needed. dun Yeah the cows are on silage (I'm > not sure whether they went back on > hay as well in the mix, they took > that out of the feed to see if > that was the problem). But the > roughage consists of about 70%, > maybe a bit lower or higher, don't > exactly know the amount. Cows are > fed twice a day at the same time > every day. [/QUOTE]
