Blake fed the cows 12-21-10

This group of cows have just been moved to a fresh pasture with lots of grass.  This winter time dormant grass has enough energy, however it is short of the cow's protein needs.  Blake has fed a protein supplement that is also fortified with vitamins and minerals.  This first day of winter was warm (35 degrees) so there was very little ice to remove from the tanks as the night time low was only a few degrees colder as well.

  1. Cool!!! Im glad to hear you guys are concerned about the cows getting their protein. However, doesn't that take a long time for Blake to make a Whey Protein shake for every cow? Does GNC give you guys a discount when you buy in bulk? I hope you have a GNC Goldcard...you can save lots of money on the first Tuesday of each month.
