We are a zone 3 right now we are running temps between the 20's and the 60s for night and day. Usually the lowest we go in the winter is down to -20 or -30 below at the worst.FarmerJamie said:Corn heats their body up as they digest it. Don't know your climate, but a scoop of corn in the bitter cold helps.
One of my main issues right now is that with the drought in the midwest corn is starting to get scarce. My grain prices have gone up about 4 dollars just over this last summer. We are told it's only going to get worse not better.
I do have quite a bit of corn here that I saved from my garden and I can share that with them. But buying corn feed is going to get really expensive before the end of winter.
Is there anything I can substitute instead of corn?
