What would the protein be on the 50% corn 25% cotton seeds and 25% salt? Any issues feeding to anything other than bulls? Will be supplementing bred cows and bred heifers how much per head per day should I shoot for?
Around 8% crude protein. Max feeding rate is around 4-5 lbs. of whole cottonseed per day so you could feed about 16 lbs. of the mix. I've feed as much as 6 lbs. per head per day to dairy cattle without any problems. If the cattle are bred I'd probably not feed over 4-5 lbs. of that mix per head per day. Should be a good compliment to the hay and/or grazing you have. Fed heavily and over a long period of time bulls can become temporarily sterile from the seed so keep that in mind.
