A good comprehensive list for Angus

[RollinWithTheStones]

Anyone know a good book/forum/etc that has a comprehensive list of what snacks Angus can have?

We have leftover pumpkins and cucumbers and we're wondering if they can eat them in moderation.

Angus as in cows? Just making sure. They can get snacks like that but be careful of choke. You may want to break things into small pieces. Also watch for loose poops which may signal acidosis. Cows do best on plain roughage, and pasture, with a bit of grain as a treat if they are pets.

Yes, Angus cows. We have five girls we care for and we're up and close with them every day so we can keep an eye on them easily. It won't be an everyday thing just a once in a while treat. I just want to make sure that it's the appropriate treats are being given.

They have 100 acres of grazing and they get lots of fresh hay and high quality feed.

Where I used to live, beef cattle were routinely fed things like pumpkins, watermelons, cantaloupes, and other fruits and vegetables. That is where the culls from the packing houses ended up.
