Sold a third of the cull ewes shortly after weaning. Went through them again a couple of weeks ago and struggled to find another third to sell. The final third, plus a few extras pulled out before tupping are now getting fed a mixture of lamb finisher blend and leftover ewe rolls and seem to be responding quite well.
This made me think, would I just be better feeding the leaner culls in August when grass is at a premium and save three months grazing? And if so, what would be a cost-effective ration?
