Bruce it is good feed for finishing cattle. Most of the dairy guys around here quit making it as it drove their NDF too high in their dairy ration. Dry ear corn will cause the same thing.
As for setting up your chopper. Like others have told you, you will need a recutter screen. Then a pan that goes behind the lower feed rolls so the ears go into the cutter head and do not drop out the bottom.
