Texas | Any tricks for convincing cows to eat the burrs without starving them? I’ve been told putting protein tubs beside them helps. I’ve thought about dumping some liquid feed on them.
6 months bred cows and 600# heifers.
I have enough wheat right now they get 1 day on wheat (I’ve been giving them a whole day and the next morning) then they move to dead grass pasture that’s pretty much gone for 3 days. I was feeding hay, but I’m rolling through it too fast so I started getting loads of burrs. I’ve been just dumping cubes on the burrs to get them to eat them.
I have some traps with solid rescue grass and wild oats coming in them, but I’m a month out probably on being able to turn in on it. | |
