Try feeding ground limestone or ANY other form of calcium and SEE what happens,,,they pull back consumption and don't eat, period. Even the colored cattle can get gain benefits from alfalfa hay.




don can you explain they cut back on consumption and don't eat. what I am gathering from this is you should feed. Feed grade limestone. im interested in this I did feed lime at one time but have stopped. in a ton of dry feed being 25% shelled corn and 400 lb of roasted soybeans and the rest ear corn how much feed lime should be applied. chop is being fed free choice sort of a self feeder. hay if it matters is all they want to and its timothy . orchard grass. and birds foot trefoil. thanks Dave
