Ridgway, IL | Dry matter intake on the finishing ration was 28-31 lb per head per day -- outdoor lot, would vary with the weather.
the ration was
11% dry hay
38% wdg
40% whole corn
1.3% mineral
9.7% syrup
dry matter %ages on these ingredients. total ration at 58-60% dry matter.
Based on the analysis of the feedstuffs we had sent in, i had the ration at 16.8% cp. 61.1 NEG. It has been a while since i sent tmr samples off for analysis.
I would have to check my feed tag to get the rum level. I am using a "co-product formulator" mineral with rumensen recommended at being fed at a rate of .4 lb per day.
The cattle were put together by the pre-conditioner. 75% black hided (angusx, simx) 20% were charx, the balance reds and whites.
