Thats what we do here, plus split the cost of wrap and any helpers. Cut, rake, bail and wrap. I only have 15 acres of hay fields so its worth it for me. Our first cut we harvested 70 round bales, second cut is mowed and raked. Looks like another 50. Split 120 bales we both make out.

emailed my congressman this morning. Then 10 minutes later John Kerry comes on CNN and says there's no alternative and they'll do it anyway. Stop the dictatorship. Let Syria fight their own civil before one starts here. Its almost coming to the point we need to take America back, get rid of...

Our neighbors had to shoot there's. It made its way about a mile in the woods and set up a nice spot on one of my friends land. At night it would make its way to feed around his house tracking up his yard. He wasn't very happy. After about 4 weeks and a bunch of tries enough was enough. She was...

"Now that was easy" Thank you very much. Just saved me a ton of walking around.

I'd say find your land marks and stake your land now. I hired a apprentice surveyor for a day cost me 150.00 bucks and we're very close on the property lines. You could spend a couple to 5 grand if you want it certified. I'd do it before dick head comes back or the land goes up for sale.

Good luck on kicking one bad ass habit. I smoked for 35 years quit 1-1/2 years ago and now after a few beers a sensational craving comes about. Hanging with a bunch of farmers that smoke doesn't help. All I have to do is think back of waking up wheezing at night and I'm good. Just a legal...

And I'm having Burgers for dinner. Medium rare please. They look awesome and like it was said before very educational. So which one was yours?

Amazing everyone got out alive, it looked like a bomb went off. Heard some people were hurt, but to the extent is unknown. How is Blue Rhino for a neighboring Company? I know around here there tanks and propane prices are expensive compared to filling your own. I never bought into the propane...

Its wierd year, some fields did well and others didn't. Farmers are mowing just to get the old crop off and start off fresh. Second is coming up under first. This past dry spell helped out.

I can't complain with all the rain, but was worried. Starting July 26, 2013 we finally had 3 days of dry weather. 190 square and 70 round bales. Already up 40% over last years total crop. Keeping my fingers crossed on a good 2nd cut.

Not only will the kids learn something, I will too. Looks very interesting. Was cost of feed calculated in the contest?

Unfortunately a "SUSPECTED" child molester just moved in on some land my neighbor is leasing him. Lease to own 50 acres. Living off the grid and no septic. The guy is being charged for molesting his own kids 15 years ago. He made bail, house arrest and ankle bracelet. I really don't want this...

We have a steer thats very friendly, wifey's baby. He's always first to new pastures and out of the barn. He likes his corn & grain mix. This August he's being slaughtered thats the one reason I don't get attached. His mother is pretty friendly too until she calfs then she turns into a raging...

I could rotate daily but it would be a kinda tough. Up here on the Canadian border of VT the "Green Mountain State" grass grows on trees, with severe snowy, cold winters. Every 3 weeks we move the cows over to another pasture, then we drag and bush hog the pasture they just left. It takes...

Never heard a .17 till now. geez that's 2 things I learned today. Nice find find TY http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.17_HMR

That's a good point. It brings up the million dollar question how many acres per cow. Please correct me if I'm wrong but with intensive rotation (every 3 weeks) would equal a 1/2 acre per cow? and if not 1 to 1-1/2 acres per cow?

22 bullets are making there way back, but slowly. I had to have my local sporting store hold a box for me last month, pay in advance. They only get a few boxes in at a time. Its a good thing cause foxes and wood chucks are getting a little to close for comfort.

It depends where you are. But I'd say yes to the door to door and ask, Communication is the key to success. Around my town farmers rent fields and pay the land tax. Due to no loyalty there's a lot of field swapping that happens, try and get a contract signed? You never know you may meet a land...

Up here in northern, VT we're in the same boat. Some fields have first cut but the majority are too wet. Just talking with neighboring farms once it dries up we may team up as theres a ton of hay out there.
