[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1779891, member: 968"] I have never been in the position to try that, but I agree with what Kenny says. Baking Soda or Bicarb can be fed separate, free choice. They LIKE IT!!! We have trouble in the spring with BUN (blood urea nitrate - or nitrite?). Grass has so much protein, it changes the PH in the uterus and cows cycle great, but don't settle. Bicarb keeps the PH correct. You can tell when it's happening (too much protein). Every place a cow pees - the grass turns brown. So, your field has little brown circles all over. - like 1-2 feet circles. Grass comes right back, but semen is waaayyy too expensive to be putting in a cow that will not settle. [/QUOTE]
