[QUOTE="lilfarmangel, post: 980185, member: 17030"] What happens with increased protein? Alfalfa has 15-20% protein with .9-1.5 calcium... The grass hay I have is around 7-11% protein with .3-.5% protein.. He's currently getting 3 forms of alfalfa, so cutting one and substituting grass hay (yeah, you're right I would be increasing the grass hay, but keep in mind, chaffhaye also supplies roughage) and giving him a "bump" of protein, would just about be pretty close to what I'm giving him now... right? This would decrease the amount of alfalfa I currently feed... like I said before, I have more grass hay than alfalfa this year. I DO like the idea of the beet pulp!! I could use that as my protein "bump" as well... [/QUOTE]
