What ever you have good acess to at affordable prices.  We use a lot of Coastal, Johnsongrass, and Sudan/haygrazer.

I feed the show heifers a mixture of grass hays. It's mainly timothy & bluegrass w/ very little clover & alfalfa. They do very well on it.

Back when we used to get rain we only fed fescue and orchard grass in the show barn. Now we feed anything that will go through the baler.
