I'm trying something a little different this year. Protein tubs. They have been around for quite a while but I have never used them before. They are big tubs with a free choice protein supplement in them which is supposed to help get some protein in the cattle when grazing the fall grasses that don't have much. Here is a cow licking on one. These particular ones are a new product on the market and I am not sure they are getting enough to do them any good. I'll see how they do on them before I completely pass judgment but from what I see, I like the results. Taken 11/19/2007.
We use to go through about 50 a month, good results.
