[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1852006, member: 6291"] I'm not big on letting cows lose condition. I'll let them lose a little fat through certain times but every thing hinges on body condition there is a fine line between saving and costing. I watch my family not spend money on things like feed and think they are doing all the good but it costing them more than they are saving. The only thing they are doing right is not spending money on things they don't understand. A lot of their hesitancy to not spend comes from spending and not getting results. Now, rather than trying to learn some thing new they just don't do any thing. My issue with hay, for people in the south that can get away with it, is the cost to handle and produce it has gone up so much that it has really killed its value. There are better feeds that that you can add to stockpiled pasture and get a better value. For us, it's wcs, it was a game changer. People don't keep good books and honestly evaluate the cost of things. It's easier to just keep doing it the same way you always have. [/QUOTE]
