Just wondering if I feed this hay, attached is the forage analysis, can a person suppliment corn can that be done and how much?
Was thinking about feeding out 500lbs heifers and steers for a few months or so.

I would also have them on a good coastal Bermuda pasture.


Given the feed test and the corn you're going to need something to bump up the protein.
I prefer to run my protein at at least 15 to 16% on your 5 wts dropping it slowly at the 8 wts and then the last step at 11 to 12 wts.

Dunno what that coastal Bermuda is running at for feed value and that's a large unknown in my book.
(I'm not familiar with coastal Bermuda at all so someone with lots of experience says that its high protein (18 to 20% when in purely vegetative then you should be able to get away without a protein supplement).)
