We are feeding them at home, at least until calving time.  They are on pretty good meadow aftergrass for the time being, and have available Vigortone mineral and salt.  They are getting used to 20% cake, and we will get them up to about two and a half pounds per day before long.  When the meadow grass plays out, they will get good quality native hay with a lot of red clover and timothy.

In late January, before calving time rolls around, we will trail 200 heifers up to a neighbor's place to the north which is about fifteen miles away.  He will feed them for 95 cents per head per day, and will AI them for $25 per head.  By trailing them to and from, freight costs won't be an issue.
