[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1533864, member: 20599"] We've only ever had one that had any appreciable liquid when it opened. (It being upstate NY, sometimes we have to shovel a foot or two of snow off them though, before we cut plastic). We also cut the plastic "outside" their area, then open gate, tractor it in, cut net, drop baleage into round feeder. (We keep all the plastic in the barn until the town dump opens in May. I'm looking for a recycling option; supposedly there are some now). Related question (sorry to hijack, SS): if you keep some baleage (still wrapped) in the winter pasture where the cows are, will they try to tear into the plastic? I thought they wouldn't (unless they were starving) but hubs thinks otherwise. It would be nice to keep an emergency stash in the area where the cows are, in case we have an extended mud season and can't get tractor in. [/QUOTE]
