Kingdom of Callaway - Fulton, Mo 65251 | When I have to be gone for a holiday, or its for cattle far from home, I sometimes get a second set of bottomless bunks and put them in a different field or pen thats fenced off. Fill them with a whole days ration the day before and shut the cattle out. Then it only takes a minute to feed the next day by opening a gate. Get a friend or neighbor if need be.
Or if its dry, just do this and feed it on the ground.
I had a neighbor that did this for up to a week. I would get off the school bus at his place, and open a different gate each day. He was just feeding hay. A TMR ration might not keep that long depending on your mixture.
They are beef cattle, the rumen is a magical thing. Changing up your feed time now and then wont matter.
