[QUOTE="RICHARDL, post: 757641, member: 4359"] THANKS, i thought about doing that and still may. What i did do was this: My house & pond sit on bout 5 acres, pond is 1.5 acres. grass is doing great with no pressure cept a few chickens & dogs. so i wired off about 1.5 acres yesterday & added a small water trough (portable) added electricity. and turn them loose. Keeps me from mowing it. After i see how much they ate when i get back home later on. I'll make another area for them doing the same thing. i'm hoping i get at least 2-3 days out of each one, like you said. than by than i'll move them to the first pasture and do like you said make 2 smaller one out of it. thanks for that makes sense. They are uping the rain chances here for sat. & Sunday We don't need much an inch or so. Last year we had a sim. situation. and we got rain early may. after that. My herd couldn't keep up with the grass. I ended up having to bushhog a few times thru out the summer. This year Hmm i have my doubts. But they have rain in the forecast at least for the next 7 days Thanks again for the advice :cowboy: [/QUOTE]
