This is my little steer project. There are 36 of them. They average 400 pounds +/-. They are getting about 2 pounds of shell corn, the grass hay they will clean up, and a protein tub. They also have about 10 acres of hay meadow to pick at although that has already been picked pretty good. But I opened the gate so they could get to the river for water. If nothing else the manure lands in the field instead of in the corral. When that protein tub is finished I am switching to alfalfa. The tub cost $0.68 a pound. The alfalfa cost $0.15.
