Yep, started hay this week. Did get one inch of rain also - PTL!

Bought some hay this week since our own production is going to be very low.

I have been feeding hay for two weeks now in the romote pasture. We put out the first hay at home yesterday. I am feeding at a rate of about 80% of winter rate.

Last year we started feeding hay iin May. Bought 2 semi loads in june. The day the second load was delivered it started to rain. We had already fed all of the hay we had for the winter and never even fed any of the bought hay until January this year. Now we've got a semi load and a half of hay that we bought and about 2 loads that we put up this year ourselves.

I sell hay in wet years and try to make enough for me in dry years. I hope I can keep up this year.

I'll take the frogs if they'll eat these dang grasshoppers.

sheesh you guys, I just started putting out a little - we have had an inch and 5/100ths since SEPTEMBER of last year.


I have mesquites dying. It is REALLY bad here. On thing about drought - what little feed you get sure doesn't wash out. What I wouldn't give to complain about mud for a few weeks, or even days! it has been a long time.
