Beet Pulp

beet pulp shreds

For fun, I bought beet pulp shreds to feed. We have never fed beet pulp to our cattle, so I thought it would be interesting to try. Since it is dry at 15% moisture, I soak the beet pulp in water to be more palatable. Beet pulp is a highly digestible source of fiber, and is low in protein best used as a supplement. I feed the beet pulp with gluten.
