I hope everyone that needed rain got their share over the last few days. Southern Ga and Alabama got a fair amount, I am in SE Alabama and had over 11 inches since Saturday morning. My pastures don't know how to react :)

It sure isn't in the Wiregrass area, we haven't had rain in weeks.

I will be feeding hay in a few weeks if we don't get rain soon, I am probally going to sell all my pairs, they are still bringing good money for now.

I use my bull for 200 yard target practice,,,it doesn't phase him, I hit him right on the head one time in 100 or so trys. My pasture is more like a big sand trap, the bahia is so spotty, I am going to re seed it if we ever get any rain.

I will drink to that,,,,first round is on me :)

I hope it works out for you and the rain keeps coming, we got over 5 inches in 30 hours from Friday afternoon until Saturday night and it was a light drizzle most of Sunday here. My wife was glad it rained when it did, I just had 10 ton spread on the pasture next to our home. The question you...

I am sure am glad I have lots of local chicken houses, I had 30 ton of chicken liter spread for $160 per 10 ton load. And to top off everything, cattle prices are still dropping here. I am trying to sell all I can for freezer beef. and Thank God for this nice rain, my pasture growing finally.

Mine will give the Wife, the "FEED Me LOOK" and she will make me give them more anyway.

I may add,,,weed control. The one thing most people don't consider is that a field with lots of weeds is costing the same to grow as the grass you want and need. I think most people could show a min of 10% gain in the feed produced in a pasture or hay field with an aggressive weed control...

John, your cows always look good. I am glad to hear you got enough hay for the winter. I am picking up another 12 rolls this weekend and another 12 in a few weeks if I think I need it.I will buy some soy hull pellets if I need to this fall and winter. I sure am glad I left the 6 acres of Bahia...

John, do you have enough hay to get you through winter. I see a lot of peanut hay rolled down here. Has anyone heard the news lately predicting a low rain totals for this coming winter also. I am second guessing now to plant rye or not.

CB, is alive :lol: :lol: I finally got all the hay I need for winter and left one pasture grow and just turned the cows out on it with some protein tubs, its cheaper than getting it baled too.

Thanks a lot Mike, now I am hungry for a big steak. :)))

BC, can you control graze up until the first of Feb and then hit it 100 lbs of N and get a good cutting of hay in 6-8 weeks.

Billy, I guess that is one big plus for the Bahia pasture, I have a 6 acre spot that is about a foot tall and starting to grow sead heads and the base is about 8 inches tall. I had 10 ton of litter put on it at the end of April and have spread the cow piles twice with my tire drag. I am not sure...

I paid $14.00 per roll, 4.5x5 rolls and have been quoted as high as 20 for 5x6 rolls. Ask him if he will cut on halves and it will be free then, that might get you the hay and not cost you anymore out of pocket, a good solution if you can do with half the hay. My problem is the small amount I...

Nowland, it's about the same here, it rained just south of my home the last 2 days, over 1" in Dothan and Enterprise area, but not a drop here in Ariton DRY GULCH Alabama :roll: [/u]

I use dish detergent and it seems to works just as well with my 2-4-D spraying. I put 8 oz to a 25 gal tank. I had a feed store owner tell me to use it verses buying something more expensive.

I tested a few of those in cold bottles this weekend at Logans Roadhouse along with a nice steak dinner. The only problem they wouldn't let me bring the bale of hay in with me.

You know, I can smile knowing that even with a post about what some consider hay price to be to high. The good in people still come shinning through. And on a good note, we had about 3/10 of rain last night and I hope and pray others got some much needed rain. :)
