Well, there's small and then there's too small. Calving ease issues arise.
There has to be room to hold all that pasture intake in order to make a
respectable amount of milk. Nope, I don't like black and white elephants
either. I like mid-sized cows.
but with very low grain feeding .

Well Dave, I've been thinking about this. You feed very high levels of
molasass with your grain. Just thinking out loud, is this the cheapest
bang for the buck to get energy into the cows? 8 out of 10 years, grain is
pretty cheap, corn silage is cheaper yet.
What do you say?
