[QUOTE="dun, post: 1162165, member: 34"] We also pasture all winter but n stockpiled fescue and onl feed hay wehn the grass is real short or we have ice or fairly deep snow. Our cows stay in BCS 5+ to about 7, only Granny and her daughters ever rolled into the 8-9 range. To my mind, stressing the grass is worse then stressing the cows. The cows will recover a lot faster. If we didn;t have these drought periods every couple of years I might manage different. If the pasture gets too far ahead of us we rent pasture to the vet for his cows. They just fall in with ours and go through the rotations with them. We've rented pasture to some others but I prefer dealing with the vet. The other farm (160 acres) is all rented out for grazing in the spring and summer. [/QUOTE]
