| I've told this story before. When cornstalk pasture was still readily available there was the ugliest bunch of cows would show up every winter. Long Horns, Corrientes, I think about everything was spotted and had horns. Turns out they belonged to a family who's name would mean something to people in four or five states where they have ranches and feed cattle. Bred to Charolais bulls they went from stalks to grass where they calved. I never saw those cows receive any hay, no matter how much snow was on the ground. This family could have run the "best" cow herd in the country, but this is what they chose. I have little doubt that they knew exactly what those cows made after their calves were fed out. Sort of shot a hole in what the common theories were. | |

feeding small frame calves.
