I don’t want the cows to be selective in what they eat. Also I’m over seeding clover and I want more hoof impact to push the seeds into the soil. Different strokes for different folks
The cuts could also be from calves' teeth. I notice it after our calves get a bit older and a bit more aggressive at nursing. Not saying it's 100 percent causing it but I do know that we have a few each year that get some.
