<<I know the byproduct is much higher in protein then corn but does it have the energy? Cause that is what a guy is really feeding corn to dairy cows for although there are plenty of other sources if need be.>> It would be lower in energy but would make a leaner feeder steer. I know milk is priced, or used to be, by how much butter fat it had and the byproduct wouldn't be good for that. <<I remember these cold snaps well while farming. Nothing good happens below 0. I remember one January where the high temp for the month was -2. Everyday was spent with frozen pipes and water cups, etc. Real bitch.>> With horses it's the water line freeze going to the barn and frozen buckets. Luckily we have lots of buckets. A 5 gallon bucket is ok but I found some from a drywall company that were 3 gallon. 5 gallon leaves some water at the bottom as a horse's head is too wide to drink the last two gallons. The 3 gallon were as wide but shorter. I called the company and 10 dozen of the empty buckets was the minimum order. Told the girl what we wanted them for and she sent 2 dozen of them free as a sample. Still nice people in this world.
