Cattle Cubes or Cattle Creep
I'm new to this, last year was our first go at raising a couple cows for eating and I think we learned some lessons but sure don't know it all!
Last year my heifers were grass feed and I would give them cattle cubes each night as a supplement.
This year, I bought them from someone else and he said to switch to creep.
I have been buying from Atwoods and their cubes have 20% protein 3% fat and the creep has 12% protein and 4% fat. Seems to me the cubes would be better unless the other ingredients are making up the difference. Or could it be the creep he is buying could be more nutritious than the brand Atwoods is selling?
Thoughts?
