[QUOTE="Sandpit Farm, post: 7857025, member: 1646"] Start with 1.25m and have a look monthly to see if you are getting rub marks on the cows, if you are, raise it a bit more (but close the gates in case they get out). Anything you can do to reduce stretching will increase feed rates (eg resin, bunkers, regular push ups etc). Slight height difference from standing area to feed area will help but too high and they will chuck food everywhere. [/QUOTE]
