Just wondering what everyone feeds there in-calf cows during the winter and before calving???
We feed a TMR ration of 9kg wholecrop and 9kg grass silage mixed with about 5kg Barley Straw with cheap dry cow minerals and 2kg of Pot-Ale /head each day!
Now we are calving silage has been cut back for about 3 weeks and straw is up to 6.5kg per day with the Pot-Ale going up to 3.5kg per day! Megastart pre-calving minerals used now.
