Gary Edwards Anamosa, Iowa | Guess I better try the wet on the next bunch of calves. I always thought it had to be fed within two weeks. Here the price of ddg's follows the price of corn and my last load cost equivalent of $4.90 corn and my on farm price of corn was $5.10 so not a big difference. I fed 6 pounds of ddg's/day from the beginning, figuring that as they got older they didn't need as much protein so by just increasing the corn I could keep the protein in line with recommendations. Also by increasing the corn I am increasing the starch which I think improves the grade of the meat. What are your thoughts? Do you prefer wet ddg's over wet gluten or just feed what is cheapest? |
