[QUOTE="bird dog, post: 1650442, member: 5381"] anewcomer I don't know if you are addressing your question to me but I will give you an answer. Up until mid October I have fair forage. After that it gets pretty thin. The cows though are in very good shape coming off summer grazing so they do okay. I have a lull period thats starts about now where their is not much to eat so I feed hay earlier than I would like. I have oats planted that give them a good boost around mid December if I can catch some moisture. I will admit my cows get thinner than I would like about March when their calves are big. The calves wean off April/May and the cows put their weight back on quickly with the early summer grass. Its not ideal but its what works best for me on this place. [/QUOTE]
