[QUOTE="NonTypicalCPA, post: 1414552, member: 25371"] I only currently have 4 head and a horse so my hay needs are small. Good thing is the horse is moving to a new home in a couple weeks which opens another spot or two for heifers. I've tried to talk myself into tarping them outside, but I've got to deal with snow here in Michigan. I currently tarp my firewood for my outside boiler and that is a big enough PIA that it's convinced me not to do the same with the hay. And after having to deal with squares for the horse vs rounds and my Kubota, I'm not doing squares. I already have a shed and a barn on the property and I really don't want another structure to maintain nor the cost of installation. The carport looks like a good compromise that I can tuck out of the view of the house (for wifey) at a lower cost. A 20x24x9 with three sides covered with steel runs around $3,000, doesn't affect my property taxes and can be sold if I ever get out of the cattle business. [/QUOTE]
