I don’t know if I could pay for that many animals. That’s 27 a bag of feed per animal per month 🥲. Nope I don’t have those funds yet
;) they probably don't eat as well as your guys - just alfalfa and graze and just because alfalfa pellets (6#/day). Mineral and salt.

Yeh that’s definitely a different diet than I’ve got. Boots eats his main grain and 4 supplements then I add water a mix it all in. It’s like oatmeal😂

Mine get Alf/orch hay....aver 50 cent a lb....and does get small grain supplements, which increase at kidding. Dairy does kill you for feed!! Meat ones, not as demanding, or needy to maintain condition. Add kids feeding after first month or so (25+).

Good hay is expensive here. $30, 60# bale. $$$. Add supplements, Alf pellets, grains....killing wallet. Spring will find a few trailers full for sale.😱. Not profitable at current costs.
