[QUOTE="gberry, post: 687566, member: 3325"] We try not to buy any more hay than we need, but always end up buying some. Our dry cows do pretty well on stockpiled grass until our winter grazing comes on. I'm undecided on worming mature cows as a rule. I think there is clear benefit in growing cattle, but at some point mature cattle should be able to perform with a certain parasite load. You're not going to get rid of all internal parasites no matter how often you worm. We have only used it in the past on mature cows that weren't thriving, but since we noticed the effect on flies, we have been worming the herd once a year about 25% at a time. We don't have significant numbers of horse flies. [/QUOTE]
