I'm trying to finish out a couple simmental cross steers for butcher. One has about 1 month to go and another about 2 months. I didn't get my weeds sprayed in the corn the past year so my silage has some weeds in it. You can sometimes smell the bitterness of it. I wouldn't want to eat it, but in the middle of winter the herd cleans it all up. I've isolated the steers and have been giving them shell corn instead. They also get choice of alfalfa and mixed grass hay. Will the silage bitterness change the flavor of the meat? Anyone have poor feed experience?
