[QUOTE="Otha, post: 1766056, member: 41397"] I knew there was a limit. Seems like Purina has a 10% fat block they sell but I understand the forage consumed brings to overall percentage of fat down. If 4% is the hard limit most commercial feeds I've seen have that much in them already so it wouldn't be much use. One idea I had was mixing it with salt and putting it out free choice like people do with cotton seed meal. Might try running the numbers on 25% pecan, 25% cotton seed meal and 50% salt. That would get lots of protein and energy into some calves on dormant forage this winter. [/QUOTE]
