That's no good at all. What are you feeding? We have 5 horses and a mule.

20 some odd beef cows

 

[Steve]

You definitely need some hay tomorrow.

How’d men, I’ve been busy and haven’t been around much lately...

Had a wedding to go to in Charleston South Carolina over Memorial Day weekend and never dreamed that I would not be done planting when I told the wife we would go...

I’m really hopeful that this week I can get everything in the ground and possibly put some hay on the ground. Fingers crossed!

We’re bound to miss one of these rains.

We’re bound to miss one of these rains.

Not so sure, We run two 4 wheel drive tractors today, just trying to cut hay, And we are still cutting ruts!!

 

[amberg]

I've had an 850i for five years. Couldn't be happier.
You'll wonder how you lived without it.

Steve, I am loving this thing. You are right!!!! It will go where the 4 wheel drive tractors wont go!

Yeah I grooved my fields too.

 

[amberg]

Yeah I grooved my fields too.

And they will never go away.

 

[amberg]

And they will never go away.

Once cut a rut, always a rut!

Got about 30 bales up

 

[Steve]

No pics but we got 327 squares up tonight. Even with the baler giving us fits. The shaft for the tucker fingers got bent and twisted somehow and we had to beat it up the best we could to get the hay up.

 

[jakethesnake]

How low you boys cutting grass hay? As much rain as we’ve had I’m thinking of cutting it high this time so maybe it’ll dry in time to bale. The 30 bales I baled were barley with grain in them. It was already all but dead so obviously that’s how I could cut it yesterday and bale today.

 

[Steve]

We are at 4 inches but we haven't had the amount of rain you guys out east have.

Rolled up 41 rolls yesterday. Prolly got 65 or so yet to go.

 

[Steve]

We have to finish around 900 squares tonight and tomorrow. Then it's round bale time!
