[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1841799, member: 6291"] We are 12 days in and our rates are a little higher than planned. We are running about #12 per head per day. As a plus, the calves look great, but I'm afraid they are going to be too fleshy vs just letting them put size and some weight on. A larger trap has been opened up to them for about a week buy seem to just go back and forth between the feed and hayeven though the winter grass is coming on strong. We are talking right now about adding salt to bring the consumption down to #8-10. We are going to try #75 salt added per ton and see if that gets us where we want. [/QUOTE]
