I'm curious what this site is about? Is it for people to pass on creative ideas they have learned or came up with to make things easier on others. Is it for experienced people to help the inexperienced/novice with problems they might have in their cattle. Is it for big ranches and cattlemen to...

Ok I gotcha. Ive never had to do this so newbie here on this. If I do a 50/50 mixture of beet pulp. One steer at 26lbs a day other at 22lbs. 24 lbs of beet pulp a day, basically $14 a day. I read that the "wet" weight of 1 lb of beet pulp is 4lbs? So on the steer thats 26lbs a day......i could...
