Very nice! What precisely are they feeding on...and what is your feeding regimen?

Several are eating. Two started eating the first day out. We feed lettuce, misc. wild vegitation (like crab grass, dollar weed, grape vine leafs, etc.), and cactus. They are provided this everyday from day one until they are sold, about 60 days. If we have holdbacks, we continue this regimen and they browse on what ever is growing in the baby pens until about one year and then they are released from the baby pens into our back area, about 75 X 75. They then browse at will and are provided cactus and some lettuce.
