So how long do you store feed and still plan on it holding its food value?Sounds like it would be a good time to stock up. But here our heat and humidity is hard on feed. It will mold quickly if not careful. Michael, I've fed pumpkins in the fall, usually as a treat. You can often buy them cheaply after Nov 1. Often they will ignore them unless there are used to a variety of food scrapes during the year. But you must have to supplement it with high protein food to balance their ration? We can buy ground roasted soybeans that are close to 30% protein, but the literature cautions against using too much at a time. I understand that they are dangerous to poultry unless they are roasted. Anyone have experience using this as a supplement?
Round bales of nothing special hay are running $95.00 a bale here in Central Missouri. I need to so some stocking up on feed before everything gets crazy. If you haven't planted summer squash, pumpkins, winter squash, cabbage, etc. there is still time. They all make good winter feed.Michael
